Buckskin shorts are done. No pockets for now. I can add them later if needed...

Awesome sauce

Very nice!

I’m guessing pockets are inevitable. No pockets would drive me nuts.

Yeah. I know. Im going to wait just to see how they stretch and form fit. I might use a lighter material as more buckskin adds too much bulk...

I’ve got some leather from elk and deer I’ve shot. I kinda want to make a hoodie. I’ve seen lots of pants and jackets but not a hoodie lol.

Shorts are great too, unique.

Check out this. There are a couple of hoodies in here. Id like to make a hooded jacket. You might need a few more hides. It often takes more than you think. https://www.braintanbuckskin.com/Fashion_Gallery.htm

Hey there’s a couple hoodies.

I have two deer plus one more that I haven’t got back yet and a chocolate brown elk. My wife thinks I’m crazy wanting to make a hoodie. I am, but that’s beside the point. I think she wants to use them for a different project. Also, the only thing I’ve ever sewn is a pair of moccasins.

It is scary cutting into the skins. You want to be certain that it is going to work. Ive had a fair amount of practice on smaller things and gained lots of experience from those. I eventually got the nerve to tackle the shorts when i had about 16 hides finished... There will always be more hides to tan lol

That’s awesome! 🤩

Nice job!

Wicked good job my guy!

I think I would pay in Bitcoin for a pair of these. Damn those are nice.

They look very nice
