Thank you for this - I just started wearing secondhand leather after eight years of being leather-free for ethical reasons and really love you spreading the word about how easy it is to find preloved.

I have been a fan of leather and suede since it boomed in the 80s.

A couple of recs from me:

- Danier or Danier Leather (Canada), had stores from the 80s to the early 2020s.

- watch out for thin suede, as it can tear. It’s recognizable in pics if you zoom in and look for little dots on the suede surface.

-beware of poor quality of anything made in the 90s. There was a lot of mass produced stuff then and it was cheap, poor quality.
