5-6oz Rawhide Side
Rawhide has been a staple since prehistoric times, used by our ancestors for shoes and other essentials. As we evolved, so did the uses for rawhide! From ropes to armor and shields, its versatility is unmatched. Today, our bleached rawhide sides are perfect for crafting large drums, repairing saddles and tack, creating home décor, and making rawhide lace and Native American gear. To use rawhide, simply soak it in water until it's soft and pliable. Then, cut, form, or strip it into any shape or length you desire. Rawhide will hold its shape as it dries, though it will shrink a bit, so plan accordingly! It's incredibly strong and durable—wrap a wet piece around a soda can, and as it dries, it can crush the can if there's not enough room. So, hatbands might be a bit tricky, haha.
