the mystery of rawhide
#3
I've heard that semi-tanned leather might be a better material to use for shields and armour than either fully-tanned leather or rawhide. Apparently it still behaves a lot like rawhide but doesn't shrink as much and isn't as susceptible to moisture. I've no idea how true this is.
