Every hide has a story! 🐊

That little tag you see attached to our hides is more than just a number! It’s part of the CITES tagging system and helps maintain the traceability of legally harvested American alligator!

From its beginnings in Florida waters to the hands of the craftsman who will eventually turn it into something incredible, that number stays connected to its story!

No two hides are exactly alike! Every scale, marking and detail gives each one its own character!

Born wild! Made to become something timeless!

Thank you to everyone who shared their input yesterday on the alligator accessories you’d like to see! 🐊 We loved hearing all of your ideas!

Now for a little behind the scenes look at what we’ve been working on at Muddy Water Hides!

This Peanut Brittle hide is headed out to one of several manufacturers we’re working with to have sample accessories made from our hides. We’ve sent different hides to different makers so we can see their craftsmanship firsthand and explore what each can create with genuine American alligator.

Belts, wallets, bags and more! We’re excited to see how these samples turn out and which manufacturers are the best fit for the quality and craftsmanship we want associated with Muddy Water Hides.

Stay tuned! We can’t wait to show you what comes back! 🐊

A little behind the scenes at the tannery. 🐊

Turning an American alligator hide into a finished piece is a process and this is part of it.

These hides started their journey in the waters of Southwest Florida and now they’re being carefully tanned and prepared for their next chapter.

From wild Florida waters to a finished hide, we’re proud to show you a little more of what happens along the way.
