Quality Hardware

Quality hardware is vital to the performance and longevity of our products. We prioritize using premium materials such as stainless steel and solid brass leash snaps, fasteners, and fittings; stainless steel and solid brass hardware is our shop standard. We offer a variety of other hard-to-find fastener styles and hardware options to meet individual preferences. We work closely with multiple suppliers for the custom fabricated components needed for our specialty products. While sourcing premium and custom components can be time-consuming and costly, we prioritize quality over lower-cost alternatives. The outstanding materials we utilize distinguish our products from less expensive options available in the market. When you experience our offerings, you’ll truly appreciate the value of your investment and understand why we place such a strong emphasis on quality.

True Craftmanship

We begin with the finest materials, selecting each piece of leather by hand and cutting it individually to create our products. For leashes, the leather is cut into straps and the edges beveled. Each component is then precisely measured. Our detailed process of punching, braiding, and assembling ensures quality control at every stage, resulting in a product designed to endure for a lifetime. We’ve even crafted our items to allow for repairs when needed, rather than requiring a complete replacement. Utilizing hand tools and simple, manually operated machines, which demand significant skill and care; our tooling is what leather workers have been using for generations. We firmly believe that true craftsmanship cannot be automated, and we are confident that you will agree that the results of our meticulous process justify the price.
