Meet the maker.

They call me Pete.

I reside in Kitsilano, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.

It all started with a belt.

In 2022, I was looking for a ‘tough’ new belt that would last me at least a quarter century. Once I realized what that single belt would cost, I decided to take a class and learn how to make some belts for myself. Immediately the design and construction process suited me. I found more levels of patience and attention in my life, while relieving the stress of my 9 to 5.

Since the start, I have been travelling across North America and have met many fellow leatherworkers, taking classes and asking questions. I find the people in this industry are extremely accessible and kind.

Best thing is, I am learning every day. Crafting leather goods is truly rewarding.
