Genuine Alcantara - where to buy?

Post by Silverzedtom » Mon Sep 30, 2019 11:39 am

Finally starting to think about some interior modifications including adding some Alcantara, I’ll most certainly be buying it online but don’t want to get caught out by buying non genuine / cheap material that won’t last.

Does anybody have any advice on where to look for genuine high quality Alcantara material off the roll? I currently have some samples on the way from ‘UK Hide’ but would be grateful for any alternative suggestions.

It’ll no doubt take me a little while but I’m planning to create a thread with pictures along the way of the project for anyone that might be interested.

John at Bespoke Leathering would be my recommendation.

Thanks :thumbsup: will try and get hold of John when they open.



Samples arrived yesterday. Looks like it’s going to be ‘Charcoal’ Alcantara. Seems to look best against the plastics in the car.
