How do I care for my leather goods?
Keep leather away from direct sunlight and moisture. Condition regularly with a quality leather conditioner and store in a dust bag when not in use. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
Do you offer made-to-order or custom pieces?
Yes and this is one of our favourite things to do. Many of our pieces are handcrafted to order, and we also offer custom sizing for those who need it. This is especially popular with our boots, whether you have a wide calf, a larger foot, or simply want a fit that's made for you, we can make it happen.
We've created everything from custom-fit everyday boots to white leather boots for a bride on her wedding day. If you have something special in mind, we'd love to hear about it.
Reach out to us before placing your order and we'll talk through what's possible.
