Our Story

In an age of mass produced products and a throw away culture we take a step back in time, to when handcrafted, quality items were the rage.

Owner and craftswoman Jo, hand makes and hand stitches each item using traditional saddlery techniques learnt though the Cordwainer's Diploma at Capel Manor College - the last full time college course in the country, and through the modern and millennium apprenticeship schemes run by City&Guilds and the prestigious Society of Master Saddlers.

The knowledge she has gained from her years in the industry and her eye for perfection has led her to winning a multitude of awards. Her passion and high standards are key to our quality items.

Jo is a member of the Society of Master Saddlers and the prestigious Guild of Master Craftsmen, giving you peace of mind that your items are being created by a true master.

Jo also runs courses in her workshop where you too can learn the art of leather craft. She also runs a very successful YouTube channel where you can watch our free tutorials and make along videos.

Measuring Guide

Ordering a bespoke dog collar or belt? Please read the measuring guide to ensure you order the correct size.

Dog Collars

When measuring for your new dog collar, the best option is to measure the internal length of a current collar adjusted to how you like it fitted. To do this, remove the collar from your dog and do it up at the desired fitting, then with a flexible tape measure measure around the inside of the collar. This length will be where the middle hole will fit on your new collar.

You can also measure around your dogs neck. Place the tape measure around your dogs neck where the collar will sit and to a tightness that you like.

We will use the measurements provided as the internal measurement and add 2 larger and 2 smaller holes for adjustment.

Belts

The best way is to measure your current belt from the inside of the buckle to the hole that is used most. You can also use a tape measure and measure around your waist where your belt will sit.

We will add 3 larger and 3 smaller holes for adjustment.
