From The Heart
“Our creations are all one of a kind, as each piece is handmade.
We design objects that are extremely functional and have been described as works of art.
I am all about sustainability, but what about creating something that won’t be thrown out. My motto is Non-Disposable leather goods. Each piece is built for life.
In our world of disposable products, DiG leather goods are meant to last a lifetime, and longer. The materials we use and the craftsmanship are of the very best quality, and stand the test of time. We would be honored if they were handed down from the original owners to other generations.”

OUR LEATHERS & THREADS
We use the finest leathers and threads available to us.
We currently have stock of some top grain leathers from the famous Chicago tannery, Horween. We are also stocking the amazing, durable and water resistant oil tanned leathers from SB Foot Leather Company. This is the company that supplies all of the leathers to the Red Wing Boot Company.
For hand sewing we use the European Ritza Tiger Thread as well as Twist thread. Our Tiger thread is 1mm thick and the Twist Thread is .55mm. The Tiger thread gives a more robust look, were as the Twist is more refined look.
We also use top quality suedes for the inside of our Barrel bags. The suede is shoe quality, so it is highly resistant to water.

BIO
Designer & Artisan
“I started working with leather in high school, carving leaf belts for the guys and desert scene purses for the girls.
I have been on a long journey since then including: reupholstering Jaguars & Rolls Royce’s, designing and supplying seating for Earls Restaurants, to designing stages for international events.
Graduating in 92 from Emily Carr, with a major in Industrial Design I became more and more digital.
Longing to work with my hands again, In October 2016 (after returning from Burning Man ), I decided to open Dig Leather Co.
My drive is to create something special, and built like a tank so it will last forever.
I want my products to be your friends, highly functional and sexy.”
