Dragonhide

Dragonhide, often shortened "D'hide", is a general name for green dragonhide, blue dragonhide, red dragonhide, black dragonhide, or anything made from them.

Dragonhides are a 100% drop of a non-metal Dragon along with Dragon bones. They can also be obtained from looting Impling jars. Dragons drop dragonhide of their respective colour, meaning green dragons drop green dragonhide, while black dragons drop Black dragonhide. However, baby blue dragons, baby red dragons, and baby black dragons do not drop dragonhide.

Dragonhides can be tanned by speaking to tanners, or trading with them. This process costs 20 coins per hide, or 45 if tanning in Canifis. Doing this turns them into dragonhide leather which can be used for Crafting. They can be made into vambraces, bodies and chaps of the corresponding dragon leather type. Each dragonhide requires a certain Crafting level in order to convert into certain Ranging equipment. This is very effective, especially when crafted in large amounts. It is recommended to train to 99 from 57 using dragonhide, as cost per experience point is not much.

People use this method to make money, since the dragon hides are a 100% drop with dragon bones and are worth more than 1,600 coins. Players over combat level 80-95 are recommended to kill green dragons as it is possible to make a nice sum of money using this method, as the hides usually sell quickly at or above the market price.
