Leather Accessories - Repairs & Alterations

I offer a repair and alterations service to leather belts and straps* to help prolong the life of items we own and reduce what we throw away.

Visit Repairs and Alterations for further information.

*I will be expanding into bags and other accessories.

Handmade Leather Belts

The main part of my business used to be hand making leather belts and I have kept a small selection available to order and purchase. Visit ‘Shop’ or scroll further down to view them.

Recent Repairs & Alterations

  • belt shortening service

    Fendi Belt Shorten

    I shorten this Fendi belt by 6 inches. I neatly stitched the end of the belt and applied an edge paint. Note: I shorten the majority of belts from the buckle end.

  • belt lengthening

    Vintage Gucci Belt Lengthen

    I lengthened this vintage Gucci belt by 4 inches. I cut a piece of veg tan leather (firmer leather) to size and thickness then I neatly stitched it to the original strap. The original leather was very fine (thin) and the customer was very happy with the end result even though a different leather was used.

  • Louis Vuitton Chewed Belt End

    The end of the belt had been chewed which had given it a ragged end. I cut the problem area off the belt which slightly shortened it before I curved the end to the original design.

The Leatherworking Skills

 

I hand make everything using skills I learnt from a master saddler a few years ago in my workspace at home.

The values I saw in how he worked, of making things with care and quality to ensure they last a long time, form the basis of my work.
