So I gathered some scrap leather and anything I could get my hands on and here is a pack of high resolution suede and leather textures. There are 40 images at around 3000-4000px good for web design or print. I also made 10 seamless leather textures that you can use as backgrounds. In the zip there’s a html file so you can easily view how they look when tiled. These seamless textures are in three sizes 800x800px, 500x500px and 300x300px.
