#TBT – A Little Leather Company Has a Volume 3

Hey folks! We’re back again with another newly colored version of one of Ed’s catalog covers. This time, it looks like the boys were out fishing and accidentally caught themselves a wildfire!

We got another message from Kevin as well! This time, he and Ed went on a trip, SLC got a lot of rain. Kevin and Becky also updated their photo, so the staff got new photos as well! Click the link below to check it out!

#TBT – A Little Leather Company Has a Volume Two

Last time, we told you all about SLC’s very first catalog! As you may have guessed, we kept it going! Ed Martin drew all of the covers for our early catalogs. Here is his piece for volume two published in March 2000 and digitally colored in August 2017!

Of course, this catalog came with its own message from Kevin as well.

Even though Kevin’s choice of eye wear has changed a bit since then, a lot of things have stayed the same. Kevin is still always looking for something new (even if it can be a bit stressful to do so) and he still buys whatever he wants! We’re also still adjusting to the ever-changing industry and having fun while we do it!

#TBT – A Little Leather Company Gets a Catalog

We’re a day off on our #TBT but you do what you want when you’re the best leather company! 😉 

Our catalog is still in high demand in an age where technology is king! That’s because we still value doing things the old fashioned way and putting our customers first. I bet a lot of you didn’t know that the catalog started as a way for one of our largest and dearest customer bases to choose what they want! That’s right! We serve thousands of inmates across the country by supplying them with a plethora of leather craft necessities.  

These days, we send our inmate customers fliers as well as catalogs and some even shop online. So, where’s this blast from the past? It’s below! Here’s the inside cover of our very first catalog, published in September of 1999. Our staff and procedures have changed but our dedication remains the same!
