West Michigan leather craft
Custom wallets, belts, and leather goods — made to order
Come say hi — I'll have leather goods on hand and I'm always happy to talk custom work.
Flat River Brewing
300 W. Greenville West Drive, Greenville, MI
A local craft market at Flat River Brewing — great vendors, good people, and the kind of community-driven small business worth supporting.
A look at custom bags, belts, wallets, and other leather pieces — finished work, commissions in progress, and what's coming next.
Bag
Every hide has a story — brands, scars, natural variation you can't predict until you unroll it. This two-tone tote let those surprises drive the design.
The face panel is a chrome-tan leather, drum-dried and finished with waxes and oils for a buttery smooth hand. The body and base are a heavy buffalo hide; the straps are water buffalo. Hardware is antiqued brass — rivets and D-rings — and both leathers had such clean, tight grain on the back side that a liner would have been a shame.
This bag sold at my first vendor market at Flat River Brewing in Greenville, Michigan. A second one is already in the works for a customer who saw it there.
Purse
A friend approached me wanting a "money bag" — something bold in emerald green with gold accents. This is what we landed on.
The body is emerald green chrome-tan leather with a yellow brass zipper and Chicago screw hardware. The interior is lined with a gold printed satin that ties the whole palette together. Straps are water buffalo.
Belt
The pull-up finish on this water buffalo hide means every flex and fold the belt takes lightens slightly, building a one-of-a-kind patina over time. The more you wear it, the better it looks. Cut and finished by hand, with a solid brass buckle.
Wyatt Custom started with a simple frustration — I was tired of belts and wallets that fell apart after a year or two. I figured if I wanted leather goods that could actually go the distance, I'd have to build them myself. What began as fixing my own worn-out gear turned into a craft I fell in love with — and a custom leather craft I run right here in West Michigan.
These days, the part I enjoy most is the people. I love sitting down with someone, hearing exactly what they're after, and helping them turn it into a piece that's truly their own — whether it's a wallet, a belt, or something you've been picturing for years. I'm based northeast of Grand Rapids and happy to ship anywhere.
