Buckskin is very soft, almost like the craft foam my kids cut out to make shapes with. You can stretch it and it grows! Sheepskin shavers are not quite that bad, but close. What I do when lining holsters with really soft skin is use rawhide to make a "frame" for the holster, then make the holster with the rawhide in between the exterior and the lining. That way you have something solid to sew to or glue to, and the holster will hold its shape a lot better.
