HANDCRAFTED CUSTOM LEATHERGOODS • MADE FOR YOU IN LIVERPOOL, ENGLAND • SINCE 1966

Welcome to Craftsmen's Choice  

Hand-picked by our craftsmen especially for you. These are our craftsmen's choices.

Steve Hanshaw aka “Uncle Steve” founded The Leather Satchel Co. a little over 50 years ago. Uncle Steve was driven by a deep-rooted passion for the leather craft and spent his time creating leather products to add value to people. A journey that started around crafting with new leathers, experimenting with new techniques and satisfying new needs.

Presently, at The Leather Satchel Co. we continue to work to keep Uncle Steve’s vision alive. In this pursuit of creativity, our team builds some unique products that are completely new and sometimes give existing products a complete makeover. We thought our customers would love to see these creations in all their glory while giving us the chance to explain a little behind the story of each and to thank you, our amazing customers, who allow us to come in every day and do what we love so much.

Our passion is firmly at the center of all we do. As a small, family-owned business, we pay homage to our craftsmen who make these beautiful items, by hand, each and every day.
