: I felt compelled to see how the FS goatskin handles water:
:
: I drew an outline of the sample leather swatch on a piece of paper.
: This would serve later to see if any shrinkage occurred.

: Test 1:
: I soaked the chrome goat swatch in cold tap water for 15 minutes. Then
: I removed it from the water, shook off the excess water, and let it
: air-dry. No shrinkage, the leather was still soft.

: Test 2:
: same as Test 1; still no shrinkage, the leather was soft.

: Test 3:
: 30 minutes in lukewarm saltwater; after that period the leather swatch
: was carefully rinsed for 10 minutes to wash out as much salt as
: possible. Then I let it air-dry: some of the brown dye stuck to the
: paper on which the swatch dried, but there was still nop shrinkage and
: the leather is still soft.

: What could I do next? Shoot at that swatch with a small caliber
: handgun? ;)

: FG

: PS: The chrome goat is growing on me..
