Split Leather (Suede & Drop Split)

Split leather is created when a thick raw or wet blue bovine hide is split horizontally. The lower cut (corium layer) lacks the natural grain but offers remarkable fibrous density, tear strength, and cost efficiency. It is universally specified for safety boots, work gloves, soft suede jackets, and coated bicast leather.
