Analysis

Camelhide is one of many textiles with stats almost identical to plainleather, only diverging in having better heat insulation and slightly higher market value and beauty factor. In this way, it can be considered the heat focused counterpart to Bluefur.

Considering that camelhide is the 11th most protective textile in the game (part of a 6-way tie), it is largely irrelevant for protective clothing after the very early game. That said, camelhide has very high heat insulation - the second best against heat (in a 3-way tie). Because of this, camelhide can remain useful in hot biomes into the mid-game. Later on, devilstrand is equally insulative and significantly more protective. Therefore, growing devilstrand should be made a priority in hot biomes. If heat is not an issue, then other leathers should be used whenever possible before devilstrand becomes available.

For use in furniture, it only has a slightly improved beauty factor compared to other common textiles. Despite this, the fact that camelhide becomes obsolete for clothing during the mid-game makes it a decent choice for improving furniture beauty. However, because wools are superior for beauty and are reasonably common, the long-term utility of camelhide is limited.
