Finding passion in leather

I’ve become very fixated on the feel on leather as I’m working with it - there is something very satisfying about the way leather wears in and conditions, as well as the way it transforms with each use and each step of the process. I aim to let the materials speak for themselves and to highlight the natural beauty within them.

It all began with a hobby…

A small personal project quickly got out of hand. I wanted a leg harness with an attached waist belt. I wanted it simple, but done with quality leather. I searched for a long time and found nothing even close - so I decided I’d make it myself.

I was immediately hooked, and I knew if I just had a few more tools I could make something really nice - and thus the fixation was born. I’d had a passion for leather for longer than I could remember and I could finally bring to life the pieces I’d been dreaming of.

I’m still exploring, and my designs are intentionally simple - I want to create pieces that can be passed down for generations if so chosen. I stand behind all my pieces and ask you to please let me know if anything fails - I’d be happy to repair or replace items that fail in their normal course of use
