There’s no more slush or snow on the ground, so I can wear these, which stain (and tear) easily. Boots by Rodney Ammons of El Paso. Guess the hide.

Sweet butter!
Elk or deer?
Bat!
If it’s not a deer-hide then its kangaroo.
Buffalo or elephant hide?
Armadillo?
Etruscan pygmy shrew
Dromedary, obviously.
No, it’s clearly bactrian.
Custard?
Kid.

That’s my vote, too.
Camel?
naked mole rat. or hooded merganzer. they look a lot alike when in boot form.
It’s tanned Boehner hide.
Not orange enough.
Whoo-hoo! Elk hide
Quite the collection you have sir!
They look good for kicking GOP and creationist asses!
What I want to see is a picture of his closet! Clearly HE got the genetic predisposition towards shoes that I was supposed to have! (My shameful secret is I am a woman with only two pair of shoes: running and winter boots.)
Preposterous. What size do you wear?
You must have a pair of Blahniks or Jimmy Choos.
Fortunately, I am old enough and retired enough that I do not ever have to high heels. Not that I did even when I was young enough!
Does it have to be exotic? What about pigskin? Failing that, maybe faux aurochs?
Dugong?
White buffalo.
.
There may be a few people out there who still don’t know that polar bear skin is black.
Baby jesus christ?
I has a question(?)
I would guess with your collection that you are experienced in hide identification. Can you accurately guess the hide by looking at a pair of boots?
Llama?
Ratzinger?
Kangaroo. Or calfskin, but ‘roo is more interesting.
I don’t know much about leather. But I do know my left foot from my right foot. Apparently, you have a left boot on your right foot, a right boot on your left foot. Examine the empirical evidence!
Happy St. Patrick’s Day!

Say what?!!
Michelle had it right in the first comment. It’s deerskin (too fragile for boots in my opinion).
It’s banana-hide.
