Snake hide is used to make Snakeskin armour with a Crafting level of 45. Snake hides are dropped by various snakes. Snake hides can also be skinned during a Temple Trekking event with snakes, although this yields a different type of snake hide.

The hide can be tanned to become snakeskin by paying a tanner. A tanner will charge 15 coins (20 if obtained from a swamp snake) for each hide, or 25 in Canifis. Tanners can be found in Al Kharid, the Ranging Guild, Canifis and the Crafting Guild.
