short hair
A defect in leather stemming from a very fine,
deeply embedded young (newly formed) hairs in a
hide or skin, which are not removed by unhairing
and scudding, and which are carried throughout the
leather manufacturing processes, appearing on the
finished leather. Short hairs can actually enhance
the appearance of a skin such as vellum. (291 )
