Everything we create is packed with craftsmanship, love for leather, and the drive to do things the right way. It’s not just about sitting at a machine and stitching a few pieces together. We take leather from A to Z – sometimes even with extra flair. Check out the crafts we’ve mastered so you can wear something that carries the soul of true artisans.

1. Saddlery – The Backbone of Craftsmanship

Saddlery is the heart of our trade. This is where solid structures, firm stitches, and legendary durability are born. A saddler doesn’t just understand leather; they feel it – knowing exactly how far it can stretch, bend, or improve. Without this skill, our collars, belts, and leashes wouldn’t survive a stroll through a meadow, let alone years of loyal service.

2. Bag Making – Practical Luxury at Its Best

Bag making is the little sister of saddlery. This craft is all about creating bags and cases that can handle your daily chaos – from wallets to keys and everything in between. A bag maker is like an alchemist, figuring out how to shape leather so it doesn’t bulge awkwardly and still fits everything perfectly. The result? A practical yet stylish masterpiece. Let’s be honest – who wouldn’t want a bag that ages like fine wine?

3. Shoemaking – Built for Feet That Move

Shoes follow one simple rule: no pinching, no blisters, and no vice-grip fits. In our shoemaking corner, patience and precision reign supreme. Every stitch is laid with care, and we choose materials that harmonize to create a symphony of comfort. No off-key notes here – just shoes that stay together and look like they’ve stepped off a runway.

4. Leather Engraving – Carving with Care

Masterful ornaments, unique patterns, logos that can’t be missed – that’s leather engraving. Armed with sharp tools, hammers, and hours of meticulous effort, we carve mini masterpieces into leather. Every cut and stamp leaves a mark that makes each piece one-of-a-kind. If you think our belts look like works of art, you’re spot on – because they are.

5. Haberdashery – Small Details, Big Impact

They say the devil’s in the details, and haberdashery is all about them. Studs, trims, stitches, and tiny touches – these tricks are our secret sauce. They’re the cherry on top that turns a simple piece of leather into a design statement. Without these details, a collar would just be a strip of leather. With them, it’s a showstopper.

6. Leather Dyeing and Finishing – Painting with Passion

Color is personality. It can make a product pop, give it an edge, or let its natural beauty shine through. Shading, transitions, oil treatments, wax – this is advanced-level magic that requires a steady hand and loads of experience. Here’s where we bring out the final look that grabs your attention and won’t let go until it’s yours.

7. Metalwork – Keeping It All Together

When we need a strong buckle, leash ring, or other metal fittings, it’s time to fire up the forge. Cutting, polishing, hammering – this is where the essential pieces that hold everything together are born. Thanks to this craft, your belt won’t give up after that second helping of dessert, and your dog’s collar will stay secure no matter what.

8. Ornamentation – The Finishing Touch

Ornamentation goes hand-in-hand with metalwork, but this is where aesthetics take the lead. Buckles, embellishments, and metal accents that transform an ordinary belt into a wardrobe hero. The artisan here is like a jeweler, adding those special touches that make every piece sing.

9. Design and Prototyping – Where the Magic Begins

Before we start stitching, we sketch, test, and tweak. Design and prototyping are full of flying papers, leather scraps, and wild ideas. It feels like a lab experiment as we try out patterns and materials until we land on something perfect. Only when the prototype passes the test do we launch into full-blown craftsmanship.

This dream team of masters gives us the power to create items that last for generations. At Slade Czech, it’s all about handmade, no assembly-line shortcuts. Every stitch and engraving gets our full attention. When you unwrap one of our leather creations at home, you’ll realize you’re holding more than just a product – you’re holding a piece of our story. Now that’s something special.
