I bet boar hide would be tough.  Are yours rawhide or is it tanned?  I plan on going hog hunting in OK in November.  I might have to try that.  Thanx,  Josh

The board hide is tanned, he only used the stuff off the shoulders.
Guns have triggers. Bicycles have wheels. Trees and bows have wooden limbs.

On the pair of high top hair on buff hide mocs I made I put on Goop mixed with rubber shavings.
I know not paleo correct but it does help with keeping dew and moisture out and traction and longevity.

The nice thing is that you cant see the sole most times.

Wow, now those are some Mocs!  I'd kill for a pair like that for chasing deer here in MI...very nicely done.
