Buffalo Hide

Recommended Posts

Does anyone know where you can get Buffalo Hide and what it runs for a side or sq ft?

My renaissance festival mocasings were hand made by Bald Mountain Moccasins. The owner has retired, and the patterns for custom mocs were purchased by one of his apprentices who run a show named Mystic Soles Custom Moccasins.

I was thinking about trying to make a pair for a friend, now that I am into leatherworking, but I have no idea where you can get tanned buffalo hides.

Thanks

Fred

I think Hidehouse carries it, but you have to have a business license to order from them.

Standing Bears Trading post appears to sell 8 Oz buffalo hides as well.

Has anyone used them before?

They don't have pricing on their website, you have to contact them directly. I hate when they do that :)

I think you guys mean theleatherguy.org -- the .com version is a cybersquatter.

I don't know what a "cyber squatter" is but you are right, .org not .com.

Thanks'
