Upholstering Vehicles in Cow Pelt

October 9, 2013 By Nadeem Muaddi 1 Comment

Auto Upholstery - The Hog Ring - Cow Pelt Fur

As trimmers, we work with bare leather hides on a regular basis, but rarely do we get the opportunity to upholster vehicles in pelts – which are hides processed with animal hair intact. It’s unfortunate, as some pelts – like cow – can go a long way in setting off a vehicle’s interior.

Cow pelts are unique in that they come in several different shades and an infinite number of patterns. In fact, no two pelts are the same – which makes choosing and cutting one an art in itself. When used in tasteful moderation, the look and feel of cow pelts can add quite a bit of texture and uniqueness to a cabin or motorcycle seat.

Below are examples of recent applications we’ve come across.

    Retired…Its Bad Enough Knowing Your Working With The Skin Of An Animal. No Haven Worked With Any Leather With the Hair There. Sounds Like The Hyde Producer Wanted To Save Some Money / Time And Some Customer Fell For It.
