Leatherwork Merit Badge

Scouts who complete the requirements to earn the Leatherwork merit badge will explore leather's history and its endless uses. They will learn to make a useful leather item using the same types of raw materials that our ancestors used; be challenged to master skills like hand-stitching, lacing, and braiding, and learn how to preserve and protect leather items so they will last a lifetime and beyond.
