  • About Leather Types of Leather
    About Leather Types of Leather Leather is an ancient, durable material created through a process of tanning animal rawhide to preserve it and make it pliable when dry. Many features of natural leather make it superior to synthetic products including durability, comfort, beauty, suppleness, and resilience. Plus, leather’s ability to patina and absorb body oils continues to enhance the leather’s appearance and makes it more beautiful over time. Leather can broadly be divided into full grain, enhanced grain, corrected grain, top grain and split leathers. Full Grain Leather Full grain leather has no surface alterations. The hide’s natural pores and grain textures are intact and it will develop a patina over time. The tiny pinholes dotting the surface indicate the hide’s open hair follicles. The presence of these hair follicles demonstrates a high quality surface which has not been altered to conceal flaws. This full grain surface breathes. It keeps the user Full grain comfortable as it adjusts to body temperature. Full grain leather is the highest quality, most beautiful, and most comfortable leather available. Enhanced Grain Leather Enhanced grain leather is a full grain with an artificial grain embossed over the natural grain. Enhanced grain leather has the same comfort and breathability of a full grain, but the surface has received minor alteration to improve grain Enhanced grain appearance. Corrected Grain Leather Corrected grain leather is produced from the upper portion of the hide. The surface is lightly sanded or refined then embossed with an artificial grain texture. Corrected grain leathers have a more consistent appearance across the entire surface.

  • Leather & Vinyl Repair Instructions
    Rub 'n Restore, Inc. 888-704-5571 www.rubnrestore.com LEATHER & VINYL REPAIR INSTRUCTIONS Please read through these instructions to determine what methods you should use and what items you need to buy. There are also videos on our website that demonstrate these processes. IS IT LEATHER OR VINYL? Unsure what material you're working with? When leather cracks or tears you can see or feel the fuzzy suede underneath. Damaged vinyl, on the other hand, will have a fine mesh, usually white in color, underneath. Be wary of composite leathers, which are actually synthetics. They have a suede-like backing and a soft surface that often peels or flakes. If your surface is peeling or flaking and is not because of a previous paint job, consider reupholstery or replacement. ABOUT SUBPATCHING If your leather or vinyl is torn such that you can see the substrate (batting or foam), you must insert a subpatch which will close any hole but still allow the leather/vinyl to move freely over the substrate. SUBPATCH SUPPLIES denim patches or any heavy duty fabric (you could also use another piece of leather or vinyl) flexible fabric glue (like LocTite Vinyl, Fabric, Plastic Flexible Adhesive) tweezers toothpicks book, small board, or other flat weight SUBPATCH INSTRUCTIONS 1. Cut a piece of denim or fabric so that it is a little larger than the hole. Round the edges of the patch, which makes for easier insertion. 2. Using tweezers, insert the patch, making sure it covers the entire hole and sits smoothly over the substrate. Any wrinkles or folds will create a bulge that looks and feels awkward.

  • NLA-Dallas Newsleather August 2020
    Issue 2: August 2020 NewsLeather Leather: It’s who you are, not what you wear NLA-Dallas is about Education * Activism * Community FW Dungeon In the corner of an unassuming, off the beaten path strip mall, to the west of uptown Dallas, you will find a hideaway for the kink and leather community. The DFW Dungeon lies behind darkened doors, protecting patrons from wandering eyes. As you enter the dungeon, you are greeted by a small resting area and an employee, who checks you in to protect the kinksters that lie within from the outside world. After gaining access to the dungeon, you will find a laid-out space that would fill a dream, in vast supply. There are places to spank and tie people to, a recovery/after care room, and a separate room for changing from your "everyday joe" clothing into your kinkiest wear. DFW Dungeon opened officially on November 1st, 2018, bringing us a safe haven that the kink community had lost when Sanctuary closed. With two kink venues in the D/FW, diversity has been available. The dungeon supplies you with kinky toy options, a place to play, and a place to find new family. The owner, Dave, was a manager at a local venue that hosted a rope group regularly and saw a need for a space for the community. He spent a year reviewing what people needed before opening the DFW Dungeon. His goal was to provide a place that was inclusive of all groups and people. After all, Dave's philosophy is "We are stronger and better together".
