Handmade by a born Texan.
My journey started when my brother couldn’t find a well made Western holster and belt rig for his revolver that didn’t cost a small fortune. I knew I could make one myself. Not only that but make one that he’d want to show off. With that spark of inspiration in mind I set off to craft a replica of the “Hand of God” belt rig worn by Russell Crowe in one of my favorite Westerns “3:10 to Yuma”.
What began as single gift and a spark of inspiration quickly spread like wildfire in my heart. This passion grew into a calling, to craft beautiful works the old way, using time honored techniques in a trade that’s slowly fading.
I take great pride in my work. Every stitch, every cut, and most importantly every smiling face when I hand them their custom work. This God given journey has been built on the support of every patron, friend, and family member that has stood beside me. For that I am deeply grateful.
