Every Leatherbound product is cut, sewn, and finished entirely by hand. This allows for a high level of refinement, both in strength of construction and aesthetic, not found in mass-produced products.
Vegetable tanned leather from Italy, France, Belgium, and Japan from the highest regarded tanneries in the world are used exclusively. These leathers look, smell, and feel great and, of course, age beautifully.
Top tier materials and construction means Leatherbound items will look great for years to come.
Leatherbound is a one-man shop. I design and make all the goods myself in addition to running all the other aspects of the business.
I grew up in New Mexico, USA, where I studied Philosophy at the University of New Mexico. Shortly after graduating in 2011, I moved to Taiwan to do a year abroad teaching English. Finding an excellent quality of life here, I extended my stay indefinitely. I launched Leatherbound in 2018 and began doing leatherwork full-time in 2019.
Ordered a vertical bifold and it's an amazing product. The stitching is very clean and the color is even more impressive in person. Super happy and will definitely order from Silas again if I need any more leather goods!
I placed an order for the modern bifold around Christmastime '19 and received the final product some short weeks later. The maker was readily communicative throughout the manufacturing and delivery process- I was never left in doubt with its progress. I am more than satisfied with the final product, and it exceeds my expectations both in durability and beauty. At the time of this review entry, I am thrilled to say that my wallet is one of the very examples pictured in advertisement of the model. It is every bit as beautiful as it is portrayed on the webpage. I would wholeheartedly recommend this craftsman to anyone who wants personal leather effects with a special touch.
I bought 3 Modern Bifold wallets in different color combinations from Leathbound as gifts for family and friends. When I opened the package, i was surprised by the elegant packaging for each of the three wallets. They all looked great and the colors matched as what was shown on the website.
I will definitely buy from Silas at Leathbound in the future for any wallet purchases.
Thank you!
Looks and feel fantastic. Great work, you wont regret it!
Good materials, good craftsmanship, good price. Highly recommended.
