Durable. Authentic. Made to last.

Why Choose Hand-Stitched Leather?

Each piece from CCY Studio is made using the double saddle stitch — a traditional hand-sewing method known for its incredible strength and beauty.

Unlike machine stitching, which can unravel when one thread breaks, the saddle stitch locks each loop in place using two needles and one continuous waxed thread.

The result: uncompromising durability and a piece that looks better with age.

Custom Leatherwork & Restorations

Crafted by hand, built to last. Whether you’re designing something new or restoring something loved, CCY Studio offers expert craftsmanship and timeless quality.

  • Custom Leather Creations

    Bring your ideas to life in fine leather.

    From elegant cross-body bags, totes and wallets to rugged belts, duffle bags and travel pieces, every creation begins with your vision and is handcrafted from premium materials — cowhide, suede, kangaroo, calfskin, emu or snake.

    You’ll collaborate directly with CC to choose colour, lining, hardware, strap length and detailing, ensuring a design that’s truly your own.
