Custom leathers or tailored leathers in Melbourne

Post by mmamster »

All

Does anyone know of a supplier in Melbourne who does custom leathers? I have seen the Lara Leathers link in another thread in this forum who are based in Sydney. Something similar down here would be good to use.

Cheers

Tiger Angel, Torrini (Black Rose), probably Mars, probably Matador, there's a couple to work with.

Some trouble, but I also found the Lara stuff is a good deal cheaper than off the shelf. I have been thinking about geting some made next time I am in Sydney but it would be less of a hassle to find someone here who does the same thing.

Tiger Angel , great stuff , custom made if you want , and back up service if you ever damage them .
May not be the cheapest . Located in West Melbourne . Check out their web site and play with creating your own colour scheme in the style you like .
They could even make a suit Gay enough for Stace :twisted: or kill 16 cows and fit Mina :lol:
Ummmm let me see
