Patchleather is a type of leather produced when a tailor combines different types of leather at a tailor bench. Useful for combining unusably small amounts of different leathers into a single type to get a large enough quantity for use.
Acquisition
Unlike other leathers, patchleather is not procured by butchering animals, but rather by combining other leathers together at a tailor bench. 50 units of any other types of leather, except human leather, will output 50 units of patchleather.
Analysis
Patchleather has the worst stats of any leather in the game in both protection and insulation. The only textiles it is superior to are cloth and the wools, and even then only just and only in terms of protection as it is significantly inferior to them in insulation. It has the lowest insulation, market value and beauty of any textile, and tied 2nd lowest item hitpoints.
The main advantage of patchleather is that it's easy to produce in bulk. Small quantities of different leathers are insufficient to make anything on their own, but they can be converted into usable patchleather. Keep in mind, however, that it may be more useful and/or profitable to sell the other leathers, than it is to create objects out of patchleather.
Generally, it should only be when there is no alternative or where its stats have little effect on the utility of the resulting item, such as in clothing production quests, or armchairs, whose beauty rarely significantly affects a room's quality.
