Brain Tanned Deer Hides
100% Satisfaction Guaranteed.
Deer are the most versatile and most widely used hide. They come in a wide
variety of thicknesses, and have a very strong, durable fiber structure; yet
are extremely soft. They can be used for everything from a fine flowing
dress, to moccasins or rifle cases.

#1 deer hides cost $18 a square foot, which typically
equates to $180 to $252, though we have hides of all sizes. We always smoke our
hides in matched pairs so that the colors match. All holes are sewn flat and
nearly invisible.

#2 deer hides have numerous holes and/or are oddly shaped. They are
great for cutting up into small pouches, buckskin laces, or for doing beadwork
on. #2's are $12 a square foot.

Scraps are also available at $12 a sq. ft.
Ordering Your Hides
If you already know what you want, you can Order online!
If you're not sure, we recommend giving us a call at 888 Hide-Tan (888 443-3826), as that is the
easiest way to discuss your needs. We'll figure most of this out over the phone,
but you can be better prepared by first thinking about these questions:
- What do you plan to make with these hides?
- Do you want thin, medium or thick (moccasin weight) hides?
- Which of
these smoke colors, best approximates, the color that you want?
Black Walnut Hull Dyeing
We can dye your hides
a milk chocolate to nearly black color using black walnut hull powder. We
charge $10 per hide for the service. The nature of tannin dyes always leaves
the hides a little tighter and less stretchy.
