Where can I find a leather retailer that sells just the material and doesn't costs too much?

I'm looking for leather material, prefer in the USA. an option of different colors would be good. All I can find on the net is clothes and shoes. I just want material. thanks.

A small suggestion before purchasing. Do a small amount of research on "working with leather" before beginning with a project. I do apologize if you know how to. In the long run it may save you costly errors as leather is not inexpensive.


At least 1 link is not in the US and that is Buckskin. They ask for payment not in Canadian dollars but the equivilancy.

How do you make permanent marker on canvas shoes PERMANENT??

I drew designs and pictures on my white Vans slip-ons with a Sharpie permanent marker. I'm concerned that they might smudge or get blurry/won't be able to see the original design if they get wet. Is there something you can do to these shoes/apply to the material to make sure that the designs and drawings are permanent?

How do you make permanent marker on canvas shoes PERMANENT??
If the shoes are canvas the marker shouldn't come off...you could test a small area that isn't so noticeable with a small drop of water on part of a line..if it looks like it might smudge take a hair dryer to it than redraw your line a little thicker....what ever you do ...DO NOT SPRAY THEM WITH HAIRSPRAY...hairspray will remove permanent marker off clothing...(used this many times).....





you could also spray your shoes with a workable fixative ..it is used to preserve pencil,pastel,charcoal drawings...you can find the fixative anywhere that sells art supplies and its inexpensive...





I hope I helped...best of luck with your shoes.......

Reply:As far as I know.... A permanent marker is just that. Permanent!
Reply:The ink may fade, but it won't totally disappear.
Reply:You can buy Hodge Podge at your local discount retailer Wal----, it will seal in the marker. Let dry for 24 hrs. (cost less than $5)

Reply:Without knowing the specifics of your situation, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is in Brazil helping the people of the country all the time to improve their lives and their lifestyle. I was a missionary in Brazil 35 years ago. We help people with jobs, education, food, clothing, housing and medical needs depending on the situation. Have your family or church leaders contact The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in your area and explain the situation and see what can be done.

If god is real and benevolent, you'll get everything you need instantly.


If not, then I suggest re-thinking this whole mythology.

Polyester and Synthetic Leather?

I have a pair of running shoes that contains those materials. Can I wash them in the washing machine or do I have to wash them in a special way?

Polyester and Synthetic Leather?
I would say you could machine wash them. I've done that with sythetic running shoes before, and it's worked fine. They get a little bent out of shape, but if you wear them, they'll go back into shape.
Reply:I wash my NB running shoes, 800 series, with mesh and they do fine. I dry on delicate or leave them out in the sun. No problem at all.
Reply:I would wash them in a delicates bag on a light cycle and either let them air dry or dry them on delicate cycle. That's how I wash most of my shoes and they've all done just fine. Hope this helps you out.

Or you can optionally go to AE and get these for only 60 bucks.

Much cheaper, aye? Go even cheaper. 40 bucks!

They're all basically the same. I suggest getting the second or third. They all have the fur-like lining and they look mostly the same.





Hope I helped. I'm getting either the second or third! :-)

Who is Goodwill really good for?

This isent really a question, more like a statement. I would like to say that Goodwill should officially be renamed badwill and people need to know why. I have been an employee for a goodwill for almost 6 months. I have seen some extremely scandalist activities since i have started. One example is many people are under the impression that when clothes and goods are donated that are not in perfect shape but are still useable are sent to third world contries and used for those in need, WHICH IS NOT TRUE! the salvage materials are sent to a center where they are burned, as well as shoes and books, baby materials, computer equipment, and other "unuseable" products are burned or melted down. 85% of the donations received will never be sold to customers and if they are they are overpriced so managment can make a bonus. Make sure that you check everything becuase if you donate on accident you will never see it again. i have tons of horror stories if anyone wants to know! DONT DONATE TO GOODWI
