This deep brown leather strapping is perfect for making bags - try the Jack Tar or  RTR Rucksack Bag.  

The strap is 2.8mm thick, 1″ (25mm) wide and approximately 110cm long.  Split cowhide comes from the underlying layer of a cow’s skin. By running the wet hide through a splitter, the tanner yields two or more ‘splits’ of leather, depending on initial thickness of the hide.
