Tomorrow during an open studio I’m doing free minor repairs (10 minute or less) so if you’re missing a rivet, need a hole punched, or a strap shortened stop by.

I’ll be here Noon-4:00, come check out the studio, chat with me about projects, or general leather questions.

We are down to the last 4 bandanas from the first batch! These lovelies are available at Messrs.ca till someone snatches them up. Don’t worry, a new batch is coming for Autumn 🍂 😁

One of my big projects for the summer is this short bar vest. I’m really happy with how the pattern turned out and the first few vests I made. I currently have the pattern in L and XL. When I finish grading the pattern down for smaller sizes you will see it in the store at messrs.ca

The backside of the man in the blue sleepless T-shirt, and yellow nylon harness the harness is asymmetrical over one shoulder, where three straps come together at a loop

Another artist at my studio gave me a bunch of nylon strapping in yellow and pink, so I’ve been playing around with it. If this piece doesn’t sell at my next market look for it on the website messrs.ca

A bearded Chicano man wearing a green T-shirt and a denim apron over his shoulder is a large brown leather belt. His hands is on his hip. He grips the belt with his opposite hand.

I’m pretty happy with this pic of myself! I needed a new profile photo for an artist residency I’m doing this summer. 😉

In the style of a mid 20th century pulp novel cover an androgynous person stands bare chested, wearing shiny black pants, black gloves above to above the elbow, and a black mask over their nose and mouth. They have a Bob style haircut, chains and chokers around the neck as well as chains connecting the wrist to a chain around the belt. The text reads “tough love, artisans a kink forward queer collective”.
