Leather is made by tanning the fresh skin of animals like birds, pigs, dogs, cows and some of the other animals. You can also obtain leather from skins that would be finished into furs by choosing [D]e-hair (for rawhide/leather) before you start to tan them.

Availability and trading
You can acquire most leather on your own, by active hunting (hunting trips) or passive hunting (traps).
Leather by itself is not worth very much. If you plan to trade leather, it is best to first turn it into some form of clothing, such as leather belts.
Leather provides more damage resistance than fur, but is not as good at keeping warmth.
Acquiring leather
Leather bearing animals include:
Creating leather from fur
To create leather from fur, you must first clean the skin as per normal, and then 'D'ehair the skin via the 'H'ideworking menu. This requires open water for soaking, and takes 6 days for a 10lbs reindeer skin.
