Answer first
Leather sits at #10 of 63 SIC-2 industries by median CEO-to-worker pay ratio and #11 of 63 by median CEO pay - ratio rank is not dollar rank (3 FY2025 filers, median 204:1 / $10.8M).
Placement uses the same latest-fiscal-year-per-SIC medians as the Industries directory. Median-ratio rank #10 of 63 is not median-CEO-pay rank #11 of 63. Figures come from Section 953(b) Dodd-Frank DEF 14A disclosures - not estimates. Inside this SIC, Capri Holdings Ltd currently leads the in-page company list at 373:1.
