doeskin
Female deer hide
Doeskin is soft leather made from the hide of a female deer, or a fine, closely woven fabric with a smooth, slightly napped surface that mimics the texture of such leather.
The fabric is used for gloves, trousers, and other garments requiring supple drape: doeskin gloves, doeskin breeches.
The word also describes the tawny color of deer hide.
