ROBES/RUGS FOR SALE
I only sell hides that I have personally tanned. Green hides come to me in all conditions. I do the best I can to procure the highest quality hides and skin them personally whenever possible. Each hide is unique and is priced based on size, number of holes, shape, hair, and leather quality. Other variables that determine the price of a hide include painting, smoking, special cuts such as head and tail robes, sinew sewing, and use of bone marrow grease and bear grease.
Please feel free to email me (wade@rmrbraintan.com) if you have any questions at all about any of the hides below or want to see additional pictures. I provide a 7-day money back guarantee on all of my hides, minus shipping, if you are unsatisfied for any reason.
NEW HIDES ARE POSTED REGULARLY SO PLEASE CHECK BACK IF YOU DON'T SEE WHAT YOU'RE LOOKING FOR.
