Leather is not a fabric, but treated animal skin - usually the hide of calves or adult cattle that has been tanned to preserve it.
Leather was used for shoes and boots, for belts, pouches, knife sheaths, sword scabbards and gloves.
In the book "Dress Acessories1150 - 1450" published by the Museum of London, there are many examples of medieval leather items preserved in the mud of the River Thames, including some complete belts, shoes and knife scabbards.
Leather items could be decorated with metal studs or by embossing designs with a metal tool.
I have myself made exact replicas of 12th century hand-stitched turn-shoes using patterns from this book.
