    These cow rawhide full grain laces are ideal for restringing canoe seats. The full grain laces are best for lacing canoe seats because there is less damage from water to the grain than with the split laces. The most common size used for canoe seats in full-grain is 1/4". If split-grain is used, the most common size is 3/8". The amount of lacing required depends upon the pattern used. Please note that the thickness is approximate. Each bundle is not made up of one continuous piece. The bundles are made up of continuous lacing that are a minimum of 12 feet long.

    The width of the lacing is the wet cut dimensions and it shrinks substantially when the lacing dries. There is also some variation in width and thickness within each bundle as the lacing is cut by hand pulling the wet hides through a slicer.

    Each bundle weighs approximately one pound.

    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.

    There are no restrictions on the export of this item for either personal or commercial uses.

    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.
