Frequently asked questions.

Please reach us at [email protected] if you cannot find an answer to your question.

Hides must be garment tanned in order for us to create your special piece.  So if you choose to send us your own hides ensure that they are sent to the tannery to be garment tanned.  

Garment tanned ensures flexibility of the product as other tans are too hard to work with and damages our fur machine.  

Prices vary on fur type, size, and custom work to fit the unique person you are!  Please contact us directly by email or Facebook for any specific questions or requests for a quote.  We often require a deposit prior for requests and custom work.  Deposits can be refundable but it will depend on where we are in the process of your order.   

Having been raised on West Texas ranches, my husband and I have been around predators our entire lives. Duwain helped pay his way through college by trapping and selling hides. Now he is still trapping varmints and buying/selling furs.  For more than twenty years, making a leather jacket of split hair sheep hide was the toughest sewing project I have ever attempted. Sewing furs has been extremely challenging, yet rewarding. I have drawn up my own patterns through trial and error for perfection.      

100% Satisfaction Guaranteed

You should be completely happy with your experience. If you have any questions about us, our products, or shipping please do not hesitate to reach out to us.
