Sourcing Cluster Guide · Textile & Apparel
China's leather capital — sheepskin, cowhide and fur garments traded and made in one river town.
Haining, a county-level city in northern Zhejiang near Hangzhou, is China's best-known leather and fur centre. Haining China Leather City, a market complex of well over a million square metres, brings together thousands of manufacturers and traders dealing in leather garments, fur, pu synthetic leather, leather goods and upholstery hides. The city's annual leather-industry output and market turnover together place it among the largest such clusters in the world, and it is the reference market for sheepskin and fur pricing in China.
The local chain runs from raw and wet-blue hides through tanning, dyeing, finishing, pattern making, cutting, sewing and hand-finishing. Sheep and goat leather for garments, cowhide for jackets and upholstery, mink and fox-type fur, and synthetic PU/microfibre are all handled here. Because pattern makers, tanneries and trimming suppliers sit within a few kilometres, small-batch fashion development is practical — a buyer can develop ten styles in a season rather than being locked into one silhouette per colour.
For buyers, Haining is the efficient route to leather outerwear at European mid-market quality: good pattern making, competent hand-finishing and reliable hardware, at prices well below Southern European levels. The critical checks are leather substance and area (thickness in mm, hide size in sqft), tannage and finish (chrome vs vegetable, aniline vs pigmented), and colour consistency between hides — natural material variation is normal, so grade tolerances must be agreed in writing.
Trial order 50–100 pcs per style and colour for garments, 100–300 sqft for raw material. Lead time 30–45 days after sample approval, plus 10–15 days for custom tanning. Always confirm thickness with a gauge on the finished panels, request a tannery certificate and REACH/SVHC report, and approve a graded colour standard under daylight before bulk cutting.
