History
As many young people do, he travelled throughout Europe and it was in Spain where he began leatherwork. It was 3 years before returning to London. After a short stint manufacturing primarily bags, belts and hats for Kensington and Petticoat Lane Markets, it was time to load up the Kombi for the overland trip to Australia.
Art and craft markets were popular selling venues. This one (at left) was at the famous Lilac Hill Park wine festival. The first store was opened in 1973 and traded as Black Jack Leather House, but by the late 80s the name was changed to The Leather Shop. The product range was also increased dramatically, producing anything from small custom pouches to top quality garments. Items of note have been made for presentation to the British royal family, premiers, pop groups, TV and movie stars and many thousands of customers throughout the world.
