- ORDERING GENUINE LEATHER:
If you require to convert Linear yard requirement to genuine leather, multiply the number of linear yards ( 55” wide) with 18. Total represents the square feet of leather to be purchased.
(x)LY * 18 = SQ FT (i.e. 1 LY = 18 sq. ft.)
This formula accounts for the natural shaped hides and the waste factor so there is no need to add additional square footage.
Above conversion is based on 55” wide rolls and genuine leather hides averaging 50 square feet.
