Here is what I do

[Lobo]

Howdy. Lobo Gun Leather, making serious equipment for serious business since 1972. I have viewed many of the posts here, and I realize that there are some very serious and excellent craftsmen here. I cannot hope to compete with most of you. But, I have customers still using holsters and accessories that I made for them over 30 years ago. And, I have customers who contact me every time they buy a new sidearm and tell me just what kind of rig they want to carry it in. So, just maybe I might have a little standing to talk about leather work. Right now, I am trying to find someone to take on some contract sewing for me. I currently make about 10 to 15 items per week, mostly stock designs but also a fair amount of custom work done to customer specifications. Now, this old retired copper is also a great-grampa and my hands are complaining about the strain of hand-sewing (saddle-stitch) all those holsters and accessories. So, if you are a serious craftsman and would like to take on some side work for me, I would appreciate hearing from you. Best regards, Lobo

Hey Lobo,

Nice holster! I do very little of the high-end carving and decorative leatherwork. Like yours, I enjoy the functional elegant pieces. A nice smooth beautiful tool case or knife sheath is a work of art in my eyes.

I would love to see more of your work. Do you have a website?
