Prized by humans throughout history, crocodile leather was used to make armor and as a trade good. Crocodile leather, however, didn’t become mainstream until the early 1900s, when tanning techniques were developed that rendered the leather soft and supple. Part of its appeal early on was the risk taken to obtain the crocodile hides. The fearsome predators had to be hunted since farming and ranching were not widespread at this point. In modern times, attention has turned to conservation efforts for these wild animals, and much of the crocodile leather used to make designer goods today is from farms.
