skins
Hides from animals
Skins is the plural of skin—the outer covering of bodies, fruits, or other objects.
In gaming, skins are cosmetic modifications that change the appearance of characters, weapons, or items without affecting gameplay: I bought a rare skin for my avatar.
Rolling papers for cigarettes, especially for marijuana, are also called skins: Do you have any skins?
