How It All Began: A Bit of Chaos, Ken’s Sad Eyes, and a Roommate Horse

Remember 2004? I do. That’s when I got Ken – my first Staffordshire Bull Terrier buddy. Not only did he steal my couch, but he also became the mascot of Slade Czech. But oh boy, Ken’s gear? A disaster. Collars, leashes? Nothing right – no proper style, no real Staff vibes. So, what’s a guy to do? I grumbled to my dog and had a lightbulb moment: “If it doesn’t exist, I’ll make it!”

When the Saddler Goes Barefoot and Lives With a Horse...

The early days? Oh, tough times! My first saddler loved rum more than leatherwork. The results? Let’s just say they showed. Then came a miracle – the Beskydy Mountains. A barefoot oddball with a horse roommate, but hands that worked leather magic. I spent a year learning from him while Ken patiently waited. Finally, I made my first collar. And the moment Ken strutted out, it was chaos: “We want one too! Where can I get it?”

Hand-Stitched With Love... and All About Style!

Today, Slade Czech isn’t just about Ken anymore. We’ve got a workshop, a team of pros (and a few lovable crazies). My son Adam has taken charge of production, my wife Táňa rules the dispatch, and me? I design new pieces and test trends – naturally, on a canine audience. Everything’s handmade, all from top-quality materials, because... well, dogs deserve the best, don’t they?
