Your sandals will be constructed with or without an arch and will have an orthopedic inner sole designed to form to your foot for maximum comfort and years of wear. You can choose from a variety of cowhide or exotic leather, embellished or hand carved leather.
  5. Custom Belts
    Our belts are cut from the spine of the hide, this is the area of the hide where the highest tensile strength is located. We have a variety of thicknesses of leather and your belt can be cut any width that you may like. Any type of belt can be custom made for you, whether you are carrying a gun and need a good dependable double layer belt or a dress belt or a good quality work belt. There are many options available. Some examples are hoof pick belts, snaffle bit belts, exotic inlay, rattlesnake, carved and name belts just to name a few. Contact our shop to have us walk you through the steps of getting correct measurements and discuss all of the other options that are available to have a quality custom belt.
  6. Custom Boots
    We make bespoke boots for each individual customer one pair at a time. If you have ever had a pair of custom boots made, you most likely were on a waiting list. If you are new to having custom boots made, what you need to know is that there is a waiting list and there is an in person measuring appointment that usually takes about an hour or more. You will be able to pick out the types and colors of leathers as well as heel height, and toe shapes. Please, only serious customers that understand what a true, bespoke boot is, as well as what a waiting list means, need inquire.
  7. Gun Holsters
    There are a lot of things to consider when building a custom gun holster. How to carry your weapon for comfort and maximum accessibility is the most important, of course, safety is ALWAYS first. Before you have a custom holster made, think about how it needs to fit while walking, sitting, bending and driving to help determine what will work best for you. You will be able to choose the color of leather and if desired, you can choose to have initials or any other type of carving on your holster. The holster and belt work together, so be sure to ask about the proper belt to go along with your holster, we refer to this belt as a conceal carry belt although it can also be used to open carry.
  8. Binding and Covers
    A bible that is falling apart belongs to someone who isn't. We have developed a technique to bind bibles so that the spine is not cut. We repair each page, and bring the spine together with special materials. We also use linen cloth to bring the spine together. We are able to add front and back pages if desired. The cover can be simple, or elaborate and anything in between. Psalms 12: 6-7 Mark 13: 31 John 17:17
