Low Tide Leather began as a passive hobby hand-crafting leather goods that are now known for their lifelong quality and timeless designs. Each product I make with my hands is extension of my passion and gratitude for this line of work and the community that supports it.
I have been independently making leather goods for 8 years now out of my shop from home. Initially starting on the kitchen floor, Low Tide has gradually grown as a small business that supports our family.
Working out of a converted shed in the backyard, the shop has become a meeting ground for our family where we hang out together, jam to music, and work out of every day.
Outside of the shop, I spend the rest of my time together with family, hiking, surfing, boxing, and designing/creating new projects.
Ive found endless inspiration for my brand from living near the pacific coastline here in the Western Oregon. I am constantly in awe with the large scale and intricate details of our outdoor surroundings from the dense forests to the misty beaches.
The name and concept of Low Tide Leather came to me while observing the surreal phenomenon of the ocean peeling back enough to uncover a breathtaking ecosystem of vibrant sea life during low tide.
The ocean is where I go to ground, reset, and find new inspiration.
Thank you for your interest in my work and supporting my small business. It means everything.
