Description
Our commercially brain-tanned hides have the characteristics of traditionally brain-tanned leather, including a strong, smoky odor from the smoking process.
Experience the soft, flexible feel of commercially brain-tanned elk leather with these smoked elk hides. Featuring an undyed suede texture, natural color variations, and a distinctive smoky aroma, these hides are commercially processed to offer characteristics associated with traditionally brain-tanned leather, while remaining distinct from hides produced using traditional tanning methods.
Suitable for garments, moccasins, bags, and other handcrafted accessories, this commercially brain-tanned elk leather is available in a variety of sizes and thicknesses. Each hide is individually photographed, allowing you to select the exact piece that best suits your project.
