Cut leather pieces, a hammer and an awl on a cutting mat in the Capra Leather studio

Made to order

Nothing we make waits on a shelf. A piece starts on our bench once you order it, and from then on it's yours.

Because nothing is made ahead, we can change small things for you: a size, a colour, a detail that fits the way you work. And we make only what someone will carry, so there's no stock to clear and nothing left over to throw away.

A day in the Capra Leather studio: leather cut and stitched in Bogotá

Handmade, and stitched by hand where you touch it

We cut, stitch and finish everything here, in our own studio. Nothing is sent out, so we see every piece at every step.

Every piece is handmade: cut by hand, assembled by hand, and sewn by one of us at the machine. On the details you touch and grip we stitch with needle and thread, so you feel the maker there, and our sleeves are stitched that way entirely. For those stitches each hole is punched by hand, and the leather is held steady in the mordaza, our stitching clamp, so the stitch comes out smooth and clean on both sides.

Made to last

When it's finished, we pack it in its cotton bag and it leaves the studio for you.

If it ever fails through a fault of ours, we repair or replace it free, for life. Years of wear we can mend too, at a fair cost.
