Built by hand, start to finish

Cut, glued, stitched, and finished in my Metro Vancouver studio.

Every Piece a One-OffMade to your build. Once it ships, that exact combination doesn't get made again.
You Talk to the MakerNo support ticket, no call center — your messages go straight to the person holding the needle.
Made Because We Love ItNot chasing scale. Chasing pieces we're actually proud to put our name on.

How a Commission Works

No catalog to browse — every piece starts as a conversation.

01

Tell Me What You Need

Send a quick note — napkin sketch, photo reference, or just a description. Leather type, stitch colour, hardware, embroidery design, dimensions — I'll ask the right questions to nail the details.

02

Design & Quote

You get a clear mockup and a firm price before anything gets cut. We revise until it's exactly right — no deposit until you approve the final design.

03

Built by Hand, Start to Finish

Cut, stitched, and embroidered in my East Van studio. Leather and thread work together — debossed initials on a wallet, a custom patch on a keychain, embroidered artwork on a leather panel.

Built to last, not to sit on a shelf.

No mass production, no pre-cut batches. Every hide is selected and cut for your specific piece — full-grain leather, hand-burnished edges, and stitching done the slow way because it holds up.

What you commission is the only one of its kind.

Taking Care of It

Real leather ages instead of wearing out — if you treat it right.

Keep it dry

Full-grain leather can handle a light rain, but let it air dry away from direct heat if it gets soaked — no radiators, no blow dryers.

Condition it occasionally

A leather conditioner or neatsfoot oil every few months keeps it supple. Less is more — a thin coat, buffed in.

Let it patina

Darkening and scuffs aren't damage, they're the leather recording your life. It's supposed to look better in a year, not the same.

Questions, Answered

The stuff people usually ask before committing to a custom piece.

How long does a custom order take?+
Depends on the queue and the piece — a card holder is faster than a crossbody bag. You'll get a real timeline estimate when I quote your build, not a generic countdown.
Do you ship outside Vancouver?+
Yes — everything's made to order and shipped once it's done. Local pickup in East Van is also an option if you'd rather skip shipping.
What if I don't like the color in person?+
Leather reads differently under different light — that's normal, not a flaw. Message me and we'll sort it out before you're stuck with something you don't love.
Can I send my own design or reference photo?+
That's the whole point of a commission. Napkin sketch, Pinterest screenshot, a photo of your old wallet falling apart — any of that works.
What leathers do you work with?+
Full-grain veg-tan and Horween Chromexcel most often. If you want something unusual, ask — I keep a few odd hides around for exactly that.
Do you outsource or mass-produce any of this?+
No. Every piece is cut, stitched, and stamped by hand in one shop — no factory batches, no white-labeling, no dropshipping. If it says Rogue Artisan, I made it.
