Why I Only Make Custom Leather Goods

In a world of mass production and fast fashion, there's something sacred about slowing down and making something just for you. At Legacy Leather Co., I’ve built my entire process around one core belief: custom isn’t just about the end result — it’s about the journey.

When I say I make “custom leather goods,” I don’t just mean picking a color or adding initials. I mean full-on collaboration. We start with a conversation — not a checkout button. I listen, learn, and dive into the details of what you need, what you want, and how you move through your world. From thread color to zipper style, you can weigh in on everything… or nothing at all. That part’s up to you.

Custom work takes time — and that’s the point. I’m not chasing trends; I’m chasing what stands the test of time. I don’t care if your taste is classic, quirky, or completely off the wall — I want to make something that’s uniquely you.

One project that sticks with me is the Copper Moon Bag I made for Casey — a fellow small business owner, mom, and total powerhouse. She needed something compact but capable. Stylish but strong. Something that reflected her adventures and anchored her chaos. Hearing her story and crafting something that captured her essence in leather? That’s why I do this.

Some folks ask, “Why not just sell stock items and offer a little personalization?” And I totally get that. In fact, I have plenty of pieces I’ve made before — and if someone wants to tweak those, we absolutely can. Think of it like a custom car: it might be a one-of-a-kind concept or a beloved classic tailored just for you. Either way, it’s yours.

For anyone considering a custom piece but feeling overwhelmed, I get it. That’s why I guide the process with kindness, care, and experience. You don’t need to know every detail. You just need to show up. I’ve got your back — and I’ll make sure you don’t make any bad calls (even on thread color).

In the end, it’s not just about owning a piece of leather. It’s about owning a piece of your story.
