We love an assembly line. This afternoon we cut, clicked, sized, branded, and skived 200 leather belts. They’re ready to be beveled, burnished, built, and restock the retail shop.

Come visit us in downtown Waynesville and grab a new belt handmade to last a lifetime 🫶

Our in-house made C&S Provisions candles, now merchandised under glass cloches so you can actually experience them before you buy.

Here's how it works in store: lift the dome, let the scent breathe for a second, then take a slow inhale right over the jar. That's Coffee and Leather and Nightcap (whiskey, to***co, and a hint of cannabis) waiting for you at the Waynesville shop.

Stop by and give them a smell yourself.

One of our most popular radio strap builds is the veg tanned lining offering. Adding a layer of 2/3 oz vegetable tanned undyed leather to the inside provides extra strength and makes for one heck of a strap. For anyone wearing a light colored uniform this also prevents any dye leach during break in which can happen from time to time.

Glued and sewn together this option is a top choice amongst people seeking the most premium option there is.

Lifestyle leather goods restock!?!?

Long overdue, we know, but the time has come!

Moving forward you can expect weekly restocks of our beloved lifestyle goods both online and in store. As we have navigated tremendous growth due to each and every one of you over the last couple of years we have had to narrow down our production to focus on fire service goods. Now that our systems and operations are improving by the day, and our team is growing we are very excited to re-introduce our lifestyle line, and get our retail shop brimming with old favorites and some new designs we've been holding onto.

You too can look as good as Chief! A real good boy who we get to spend time with a couple times of year during trade show season.

This year he posed for a few photos while styled in one of our hand screened bandanas by Nashvilles finest
