What about leather strips? Is leather ok to use as an alternative to ropes? If leather is ok I have another question. Most leather is commercially tanned with chemicals, so is commercially tanned leather strips safe? Or would it be better to use brain tanned leather instead? Brain tanned leather is the old fashion way of tanning leather with the brains of the animal. Yes, I know it sounds gross but brain tanned leather contains no chemicals what so ever. It's also much more expensive than commercially tanned leather.
Thanks,
