Zildjian Leather Pads are made from genuine premium leather. Providing support for your hands when playing and holding crash cymbals especially for long periods of time, they are a popular choice for marching band drum lines. These pads give school programs on a budget an affordable high-value option for their cymbals, as they are recommended for both indoor and outdoor use. Leather Straps pair well with the Leather Pads, as these also feature the signature Zildjian logo in gold.
