leather scraps
Tannery waste material
Leather scraps are leftover pieces of leather from cutting or manufacturing—the irregular fragments that remain after hides are cut into usable shapes for bags, shoes, or garments.
Crafters buy leather scraps cheaply for small projects: I made the wallet from leather scraps I got at the craft store.
The term also describes worn or deteriorating leather: The old jacket was reduced to leather scraps.
