Leathersmith Designs

About page names founder Jamie Hartling and co-owner Gail Hartling as the operators, with no parent company mentioned; a third-party BBB listing corroborates the legal name Leathersmith Designs Incorporated. A federal Corporations Canada search returned no match, consistent with a Nova Scotia provincial incorporation that could not be checked directly.

The vendor names its leather grades (vegetable tanned and chrome tanned cowhide) and hardware (solid brass buckles) but does not disclose which countries the hides or tannery are located in; this mix is an estimate reflecting typical global hide and tannery sourcing for North American leather goods makers, not a published breakdown.
