How It All Began

Ever since I was a student, I've always liked riding motorcycles.
Therefore most of the outfits that I would wear were mainly “ biker goods”.
Among them is a brand called「langlitz leather」

Although it is a leather band from America, I could still remember the impact it had on me when I first came across this brand.
From the outside it felt like an amour but the moment I tried it on , I was surprised at how well it actually fits.
I was overwhelmed by the flexibility, scent and luxury of the leather and as a teenager, this has opened my eyes to a whole new world.


This is where it all began, the first step that got me interested in “leather”

In the year 2017,as my interest in leather grew stronger, I started searching for leather craft books and began my self-taught journey .However I came to realize that the best teaching materials were not books with detailed explanation but rather the wallet , bags and leather jacket that I own. I would then disassemble them, rearrange the design and create an original end product.

Gradually, I became immersed in the world of leather-craft and to this day , the very same emotions runs through me with each and every stitch put into finishing a products.

We aim to create original products tailored to suit each individual using CAD.

Over the time, the color and appearances of a leather piece may change. Hence creating products that will remian stylish for life is something we'll always try to achieve.
