These cow rawhide full grain laces are ideal for restringing the seats on cane chairs.  The full grain laces are best for lacing cane chairs because there is less damage from water to the grain than with the split laces.  For other projects, see our entry for Rawhide Lacing.

Please note: rawhide lacing is stiff and must be wetted before use.  It will then dry stiff.  We have had customers order rawhide laces thinking that they are getting a nice soft lace and are disappointed because it is stiff.

Please click HERE for Pricing on this lacing which is also used for making canoe seats.

* The thin lacing is made using very thin cow hides and is significantly thinner than the regular 3/16" lacing.

Care of Rawhide

The most important thing for rawhide, especially for snowshoes, is to never let them freeze when the lacing is wet.  Store the canoe seat, snowshoes, etc. away from the sun in a cool dry place.  Varnishing the rawhide is prevents it from getting wet.  Re-varnishing once every year is also recommended.
