Our process
How it’s made, by hand
- 01
Leather selection
A full-grain or exotic hide, chosen for quality and character.
- 02
Cutting
Each piece is cut by hand using a template made to your exact lug width and length, minimising waste and maximising precision.
- 03
Skiving & padding
Edges are skived thin for a clean fold, and a padding layer is added for a supple, comfortable fit on the wrist.
- 04
Saddle stitching
One thread, two needles — pulled tight by hand, stitch by stitch.
- 05
Edge finishing
Edges sanded, dyed and burnished to a smooth, glass-like finish.
- 06
Quality check
Every strap is inspected for stitching, edge finish, and fit before being packed and shipped to your door.
