After a couple of weeks of hard work (and some last minute technical glitches) I've finally launched the first of the new leathers this morning. There will be some more released over the next couple of weeks, but available immediately are eight new leathers that [...]
While I was at one of the wholesalers I visited on my road trip last week I picked up some English bridle leather. This leather is far too heavy to make watch straps from (it's twice as thick as anything I use for watch straps) [...]
