Re: Leather on the Cheap
Mon, July 7, 2008 - 5:02 AMTandy and The Leatheer Factory are the same . I have found that if you talk to the manager and tell him or her that you a re a member of the SCA they are willing to sell to us wholesale.

Re: Leather on the Cheap
Wed, July 23, 2008 - 12:20 PMHere in Kansas City, there is a place called Konomos that is a wholesale shoe supply place that has tons of leather much more reasonably priced than Tandy....
Konomos Distributing. 5629 Truman Road. Kansas City, MO 64127. 816-483-9388.
I'm not sure how willing they are to do business with individuals over distance...most of their business is bulk supply to shoe makers. I've only ever walked in and looked around the warehouse for leather and supplies.
