Our philosophy is simple: use the best leathers on the planet, work with old-school machines, tools, and techniques, and don’t overcomplicate it. Keep the designs clean, classic, and honest.  Add a little L-I-V-I-N, some real life rubbed into the edges, and you end up with something that’s got heart.

Back around 2011, in the Colorado high country, this whole thing kicked off as a way to stay close to what we love: music, adventure, good folks…that creative spark. It was less about starting a business and more about chasing down something meaningful. Now, with over a dozen years of crafting leather goods under our belts, we’re proud of the work we've put it in, and to see that it's turned into a pretty cool business. We’ve settled around our roots in Southern Illinois, near St. Louis, but the road’s still in our bones and our products reflect that.

The coolest part of this whole thing is seeing our products out there in the wild...the soul of a strap that's seen a thousand gigs, a bag that's slept under the stars. That's the good stuff right there - building gear that’s tough, beautiful, and alive with the people who carry it.
