Handcrafted leather goods built to last generations
Welcome to Chase LeatherCrafters. Since 1971, we have dedicated ourselves to traditional leather craftsmanship, creating timeless, bespoke goods shaped by patience, dedication, and meticulous attention to detail.
Our journey began humbly in a small garage back in 1971, crafting custom rifle slings and everyday gear for friends and neighbors. That early spark grew into an enduring passion for crafting one-of-a-kind leather items. Decades later, that genuine devotion to hands-on shaping, cutting, and stitching continues to guide every custom piece we build for customers across Portland and beyond.
Handmade quality that outlasts mass production
Handmade is simply better. When making goods one by one, attention to detail is paramount for enduring longevity and structural strength. Unlike factory lines, we hand-select premium hides and hardware directly, ensuring every grain, edge, and stitch meets our uncompromising standards of durability.
Inspired by coastal Oregon's deliberate pace
Serving the greater Portland area while living and working near the coast in Astoria, Oregon allows us to embrace a tranquil pace far away from big city rush. This calm coastal rhythm provides the peace needed to focus entirely on each piece, allowing greater precision and care to emerge in every edge bevel, dye application, and finish.
"The moment you hold one of our pieces, our promise is clear: you are holding something crafted to last a lifetime, built with the strength to be handed down through generations."
