i have a pair of deerskin boots, very native americanesk looking, they are a perfect foot fit but they wont go up my chunky calves. so i had an idea to open up either the front or the sides and add some deerskin lacing, only problem is, i have been looking everywhere locally for some deerskin fabric or deerskin lacing, fabric will do, i would just cut it into strips, but i cant find anywhere around me that sells any at all! joanns, ac moore, michaels, even our local fabric depo in walmart doesnt carry it, i'm racking my brains trying to find some but i cant seem to get my hands on any, does anyone know of any places that sells either deerskin fabric or deerskin lacing please let me know, anywhere locally near you or online, thanks!!!

i'd say your best bet is to contact a deer hunter during deer season. deer isn't really commercially harvested so it's going to be tough to find. or... you could use an alternative fabric.

outside of deer season it's next to impossible to find any deer products. Neutral
