About Us
Our Story
Cowhides Direct was started out what we feel was a necessity to raise the standard of quality and service for the cowhide industry. Our family has been in the cowhide and furniture business for over 25 years and we have been to countless trade shows, seen copious amounts of furniture stores, and have a firm grip on the industry as a whole.
With this knowledge and experience, we decided it was time to bring a consistent level of quality to the cowhide industry. All of the cowhides we sell are sold with integrity, honesty, and accuracy. We have taken a step above and beyond what our competitors are doing by taking pictures of every single cowhide in our inventory, numbering them, and offering our customers an exact image of the product they are going to receive. When you shop with Cowhides Direct, there is no "product will arrive similar to what you see". With our company, what you see is what you get!
After so many years in the industry, we have found that at an almost equal value, customers need great service! At Cowhides Direct we pride ourselves on having the best customer service possible and we are always happy to help with even the smallest questions. We are here for you 7 days a week.
We sincerely hope to gain you as a customer and will never take for granted your business. Rest assured, when shopping with us, you will feel right at home.

Our Hides
Each and every one of our top-quality, only A grade cowhides are sourced from ranchers and farmers in Brazil and Europe that are very careful and respectful of the animals these hides come from.
All of these hides are humanely and sustainably harvested from animals that are not raised for their hides or leather alone, but instead raised for meat. Every single one of our hides comes with a certificate of authenticity can only confirm where it’s from but also that the animal was treated well respected and cared for.
These perfect cowhides are then delivered to us here at our operation based out of Florida. Our own team of inspection experts then start to carefully comb over every square inch of cowhide that comes through the doors.
Only the best of the best are ever made available for sale, though, with a number of hides from every order sent out to other retailers or operations because they didn’t make our cut. We know this is a special investment for you and we are serious about honoring our end of the bargain.
The hides are then inspected for quality and character, with each hide individually photographed (in stunning HD) and added to our online catalog for customers to browse and order from. Each hide is guaranteed not to shed any hair whatsoever, not to curl or crinkle because of improper treatment, and not to degrade or fall apart over time.
These are forever cowhides that will outlast each and every one of us when well cared for.
