This episode is a nearly two-hour, free-flowing conversation with Bryan from Lowtide Leather about the realities of leatherworking that rarely get shared online.
From intentionally staying small and working out of sheds and spare rooms, to the rising cost of leather, tools, and hardware, this episode explores what it actually looks like to make things by hand over the long haul. The conversation blends philosophy, humor, parenting, craft economics, favorite tools, and the shared experiences that most leatherworkers quietly relate to.
There’s no blueprint, no hustle pitch, and no highlight reel—just an honest look at why many makers keep going even when growth is slow and profit isn’t guaranteed.
