Tanner

A Tanner is a non-player character who for a price will tan hides into leather:

Cowhide, which becomes Leather or Hard leather
Snake hide, which becomes Snakeskin.
Green, blue, red, and black Dragonhide, which becomes Dragon leather of the same colour.

Locations[edit | edit source]

Tanners can be found in the following locations, marked with the "Tanner" icon ()

Ellis in Al Kharid. Both the ring of dueling and the amulet of glory can be used to teleport to Al Kharid, and Ellis is near a bank.
Tanner on the 1^st floor^[UK]2^nd floor^[US] of the Crafting Guild.
Leatherworker in the Ranging Guild.
Sbott in Canifis. He charges higher prices for tanning, a bit over twice what other tanners charge.
Eodan in the Crypt of the Moon within the Forthos Dungeon. He tans hides at a higher cost than other tanners, but this can be reduced by completing parts of the Kourend & Kebos Diary.
Mary in her farm in the Kebos Lowlands, south of the Farming Guild. Requires the completion of Getting Ahead to use.

Players can also tan hides themselves with the Lunar spell Tan Leather, which requires 78 Magic and the Fremennik Hard Diaries, without paying any coins.

^ There is no Crafting level required to use a tanner to tan hides. Listed here is the minimum Crafting level required to make something using the leather.
^ Eodan's prices adjust for each completed tier of the Kourend & Kebos Diary.

In the early days of RuneScape, players had to tan their leather themselves using the tailoring skill.
