You’ll have to gather a few materials and use the right crafting stations to make it. In this guide, we will show you how to get Tanned Leather in Windrose.
How to Get Tanned Leather

Tanned Leather is mainly used for crafting and upgrading gear in tailoring. You can make Tanned Leather by using Rough Hide along with the Tanning recipe, which you get from the Alchemy Table. You can craft Tanned Leather at your station, and it takes about 45 seconds to complete. For each piece, you’ll need 3 Rough Hide and 1 Tannin. Once you have the materials, just start the craft and wait a short while for it to finish.
How to Get Tanning Rack
The Tanning Rack only works if it’s placed within the range of your Bonfire, so make sure to set it up nearby. Building one is quick and simple; it only takes about a second. To craft it, you’ll need 10 Wood and 5 Rope. You’ll also learn how to make it after getting Tree Bark, which unlocks the recipe.
How to Get Tannin

Tannin is a useful material for turning hides into leather. It has strong tanning properties and is mainly used when working with hides and furs. You can craft Tannin at a Level 1 Alchemy Table. To make it, you’ll need 1 Clay Bottle and 2 Tree Bark. Once you have those, just craft it at the table, and it’ll be ready to use.
How to Get Rough Hide

At the start, your main way of getting Rough Hide is by hunting animals like boars and other furry creatures on the starting islands. As you progress, you’ll eventually reach Tortuga through the main quest. Look for the Merchant Contract: Animal Products. When you first buy it, it gives basic items like meat and feathers. But after you complete the Coastal Jungle storyline and defeat its boss, the contract upgrades. At that point, it starts offering valuable resources like Rough Hide, Boar Tusks, and Animal Fat.
