Industrial engineering precision applied to the ancient craft of leatherworking. Every piece is built to survive the rigours of time.
"Everything Leather is where worlds collide. Every design is a system, built for a lifetime of use. Every stitch is a point of structural integrity."
Artisan Shabi Tloubatla applies industrial engineering precision to the ancient craft of leatherworking. The result is a collection of goods that don't just look premium—they are engineered to survive.
Where an Engineer's Precision Meets an Artisan's Passion.
Every project begins with hand-selecting the finest full-grain leather, chosen for its unique character and ability to develop a rich patina.
With a steady hand and a sharp steel blade, each component is meticulously cut with focus and precision to ensure zero structural waste.
Using only tried and tested hand-stitching techniques, creating an interlocking stitch that is exponentially stronger than any machine.
Edges are beveled, sanded, and burnished with beeswax to create a smooth, durable finish that signifies true engineering craftsmanship.
Handcrafted for longevity. Engineered for life.
"Flawless construction. It’s not just crafted, it’s engineered. You can feel the structural integrity the moment you hold it."
"The Mind of an Engineer really shows in the details. The bespoke tote I commissioned is a work of art that I use every single day."
