Hard leather is used in the Crafting skill to make hard leather armour. It can be created by giving a cowhide and three coins to a tanner or by using the Make Leather spell at level 83 Magic. Tanners can be found in Al Kharid, the Ranging Guild, Varrock, Taverley, Canifis, Prifddinas, and the Crafting Guild.

Hard leather can be made into several armour pieces requiring between level 25 and 29 Crafting if a player has thread in their inventory. Steel studs cannot be added to hard leather armour. Buying cowhides and tanning them into hard leather gives a profit of 143 coins per cowhide.
