Red Smith
Leatherwork
Cosplay, LARP & Video Game Inspired Since 2007
I started working with leather in 2007 when I was teaching in Japan. My interest soon turned into a passion and then into my full-time job.
I've now specialized in cosplay, accessories, geeky stuff, video games & movies inspired leather items.
Don't hesitate to contact me for custom orders or visit my online shop for patterns and handmade leather items.
Every piece here starts in another world and ends up in this one. Hand-cut, tooled and stitched in vegetable-tanned leather: armour and props for cosplay and LARP, belts and everyday leather goods, forged knives with their sheath, and printable PDF patterns to build your own. Made one at a time in a workshop in France, shipped worldwide. Custom orders welcome.
