Analysis

Elephant leather ties with bearskin for 6th most protective textile against sharp and blunt, and 3rd against heat. They are very good candidates for dusters and other protective clothing - especially in temperate biomes.

But even elephant leather should be replaced by better materials, like devilstrand, once available. Dusters receive priority. Using the best textiles on dusters has the most impact on protection. If you need to conserve better material, you can use elephant leather for pants or button-down shirts.

For use in furniture, it has a middle-of-the-road beauty factor. But more beautiful textiles are in high demand for other purposes. So, once redundant as clothing, this leather is a decent choice for furniture beauty.

-Elephant leather is the tied 6th most protective textile against sharp and blunt, and tied 3rd against heat. It isn't a good insulation, but a very good candidate for [[duster]]s and protective clothing, especially in biomes without temperature extremes.  The exceptional amount of leather that a single [[elephant]] provides mean that as single elephant [[manhunter pack]] can produce a lot of leather for this purpose as well.
