Caiman Belly Leather, Full Skin, Exotic Leather
What is Caiman Leather: Caiman leather is from the same family as crocodile leather and alligator leather. Argentine caiman is considered the best for its exceptional softness and structured scale pattern, and the belly area the choicest part of the hide. Our caiman skins are farm-raised in the famous Santa Fe region of Argentina and cut along the back to preserve the entire belly for use. Because of its rich coloration, supple character, and long-lasting resilience, Argentine caiman is a popular choice for luxury handbags, premium footwear, and fine accessories.
Argentina's strict government regulations ensure ethical and sustainable farming, maintaining healthy populations while producing consistently high-quality hides. Each skin is tanned at the source, preserving the natural scale structure and durability while using a process to enhance both flexibility and strength. Once processed, the hides are finished in the USA, where expert craftsmen refine the texture, enhance color vibrancy, and perfect a final finish worthy of high-end luxury goods. Our extensive selection of colors of caiman belly leather and other varieties of exotic leather skins is the largest in the USA.
Source: Our caiman skins are farm raised in Argentina where the meat is used for consumption. A percentage of hatched juveniles are released in the wild to maintain wild populations.
