These Black Dakota sides are smooth and versatile, with a slightly waxy surface and a firm feel that’s structured but still workable. The tight grain gives it a clean, polished look, while the 5–5.5 oz weight keeps it strong yet pliable enough to work with ease. Ideal for crafting bags, wallets, accessories, or small goods. This hide offers a nice balance of structure and flexibility with a natural, durable finish.
