Testimonials
“My husband and I love to shop there for our stores. We have been going to Hides and Skins for two years. What I love is, we get to handpick our merchandise and most of the products are made there. The ladies stay in communication when new products arrive. My customers light up when they see the products from Hides and Skins and continue to return to buy their products.”

“I have been a customer since the 1990's from Texas to Arizona. The hides are as described: healthy, shiny hair, good sizes, colors and patterns. The staff folks are easy and pleasant to work with and they do an amazing job of sorting, photographing and shipping in a timely manner.”
— Abbie C.
“We met Lucas and began doing business with Hides and Skins in 2015. We like to support local companies, and they’re right here in San Antonio. They have the best selection of superior hides, and we like to deliver quality to our patrons. Their customer service is excellent: the staff is knowledgeable and courteous, and gives us the opportunity to hand-pick the products that best fit our needs.”

“As a small business owner, it's difficult to get away from my shop to purchase much-needed inventory. I love working with the staff at Hides and Skins because I can call and send pictures of what I'm looking for and they will pull products and send me photos of what they have in stock. They’ve learned my tastes and the styles I carry in my shop and work very hard to know me and my business and what they can do to make it successful. I have recommended Hides and Skins to other start-up companies because I believe in the way they conduct business and the quality of their products.”
