Went toy shopping today and picked up a Pro Framer bag set and suspension system. I've had 4 decades in the trades and only two hours of that in your gear but I can't tell you how many body parts are already shouting 'thanks'. Absolutely outstanding gear.

First of all, many thanks to your company for existing! All-leather, U.S.-made tool pouches are a real dream come true!

Just a note to let you know what fine quality bags and belts you are making. I have been in the construction industry for 20+ years, replacing my bags/pouches every couple of years. A year ago I purchased your pro trimmer set and they are hardly broke in! I also just purchased the 5055 suspenders last week. It is a pleasure working with your products.

More than 40 years ago, disappointed with the awkwardness of his tool belt and unable to find a good alternative, Darryl Thurner took matters into his own hands. Based on his own on-the-job experience, he went to a saddle shop and had a high-quality, rugged belt built to organize his gear in a far more intuitive way.

Today that tradition continues for trades of all types. Whether you’re an electrician, a framer, or simply left-handed, Occidental Leather has the products you need to take your work to the next level, backed by our exceptional customer service and support.
