Vegetable tanned leather is bone dry. Almost cardboard in its dryness. In order to make the tape holder flexible, durable and waterproof, you need to feed it a large amount of mink oil and coat it with a paste of mink oil and wax. (Or your oil of choice). Once you've done this you have a good looking, hard wearing product that will last for decades with proper care.
