About Us

Welcome to Kinfolk Leather, where beauty meets simplicity!

Named in honour of the kinfolk movement, a style of slow living that encourages creativity, simplification, and reclaiming our time for what truly matters, we are dedicated to providing an antidote to modern-day consumerism. In a world where fast, cheap, and impersonal items dominate, we believe in offering an alternative—a chance to embrace well-crafted, artisanal products that satisfy your needs, tell a unique story, and reduce waste through longevity.

Located in a cozy studio on the sunny coast of the Bay of Plenty in New Zealand, Kinfolk Leather is committed to creating personalised leather goods, such as our bespoke dog collars. We believe that there is beauty in simplicity, and our handcrafted products reflect this ethos. Our focus is on crafting exceptional pieces that are made to last, ensuring that your beloved companion enjoys a collar that not only stands out but also endures.

We understand that dogs are more than just pets; they are cherished members of our families. That's why we take great care in selecting premium, ethically sourced leather and using meticulous craftsmanship to create collars that are as unique as your furry friend. By offering an array of customisable options, from leather colour and texture to hardware and engravings, we collaborate closely with you to ensure a collar that perfectly captures your dog's individuality.

At Kinfolk Leather, we also strive to make a positive impact on the environment. We embrace sustainable practices, source our materials responsibly, and aim to reduce waste throughout our production process. By choosing our products, you not only support local artisans but also contribute to a more sustainable future.

We invite you to explore our collection of beautiful, simple things. Each item is crafted with care, passion, and an unwavering dedication to quality. Discover the joy of owning an artisanal product that tells a unique story and stands the test of time.

Thank you for visiting Kinfolk Leather! We are thrilled to have the chance to offer you a personally crafted, meticulously handcrafted leather collar that will add a touch of elegance to your dog's attire.

Warmest regards,
