Pigskin is a type of leather made from the hide of a pig. It is commonly used in making items such as footballs, clothing, and accessories due to its durability and flexibility.
This is because the first ever football was made out of pigskin.
The term pigskin refers to football since the first footballs were made from pig skin. For example, tossing the pigskin.
Back then it was made of pigskin and people called "tossing around the ol' pigskin." But today it is made of leather.
