skin usually refers to the hide before it is worked into a product.

Websters: the pelt of an animal prepared for use as a trimming or in a garment *her neckpiece of four skins* *it takes forty skins to make a coat*

You could use something like "exotic leather goods" to refer to product made with crocodile and other animal hides.
