Belle was a joy to work with from start to finish. The brown leather tote she made is stunningly gorgeous! Thanks for your beautiful craftsmanship Belle!

The intrinsic feature of the products designed by Maine Leather Company is the study, recovery and re-interpretation of traditional artisan techniques, often forgotten by the industry. All that, together with the use of noble materials, provides the essential keys to the final aesthetics and the lasting design of each of its items.As a designer I am very fascinated by Belle’s way of working and I believe that in this way, the charm and uniqueness of her leather goods become timeless for those who like me, use different ones in everyday life.

She makes the best bags! I got my now wife one, then my mother instantly asked for one, and then my sister. Years later and they all still use them regularly, with no signs of wear and tear. We even have a couple beer cozies and Mason jar cozies. The customer service is great as well, Belle has helped me get a couple items last minute and I cannot recommend her and her products enough.

I received the black tote as a gift and couldn’t be happier. The tote is absolutely beautiful and I am confident it will only improve with use.This kind of quality only comes from an artist who truly respects their craft.

I love my tote!!!The hand stitched details are amazing!!! Beautiful, durable pieces that will last forever.Highly recommend any MLCo products, AND they do custom orders!!

Unbelievable quality and attention to detail!! I have many MLCo products, all of which have stood the test of time and are among my most valued possessions. Without a doubt my favorite piece is my Maine Leather Co Messenger bag. This bag is an absolute work horse and adds a touch of class to my style which some have described as nonexistent. While my wardrobe may not stand out, this bag has turned heads on many occasions. Its simply impossible to find better quality for the price!

I recently bought the Tote III for my sister in law. To say she was excited is an understatement! She uses the bag for many things. There are plenty of compartments for all you need, including a smaller pocket for a laptop and then a bigger pocket for larger items. The stitching is beautiful and consistent throughout the whole piece. You can tell the bag was made with care as every part is intricate and stitched with attention to detail. They also do many custom pieces so if you have a vision they can work with you to make your dream piece a reality. 10/10 would recommend!

I have several pieces from Maine Leather Co and they are all amazing! Belle is a dream to work with and every piece she makes is hand stitched with the utmost attention to detail and full of love.

I have purchased a variety of custom leather goods and a few items listed in the shop over the years. I have been ecstatic with each piece. The attention to detail is apparent upon unboxing. The quality of leather and stitching has shown itself over the years. I am (unfortunately flawed and) hard on my belongings... from my car to my boyfriends, I’m rough on it all. My custom leather wood hauler has performed over many winters, never losing a stitch no matter how many twitches of wood have been incessantly carried and thrown into the box (leather hauler included). My doctor bag has stood the test of time being smooshed into my foot well of my car, make-up spilled inside, chapstick melted in there... honestly I think it looks BETTER with age and functions as well as it did on day one. I have been slightly nicer to my cross body bag, and it still looks dope as ever. Lastly (although I have a handful of other items I love and use daily), I want to mention my tote bag. I have had it for 7+ years and carry it packed with books, binder, laptop, and papers strewn through it to work every single day. Sometimes I dump its contents out onto my chair and pack it with clothes and overnight accessories and it works perfectly for that as well. It’s always ready to go, no matter the mission.. my trusty sidekick. Dress it down, dress it up, it works. I think when the quality is there, you can use it for anything. And the quality of these Maine Leather Co pieces is definitely there. Thank you Belle, for the love and attention you put into each piece you create. Can’t wait for my custom makeup bag to save all these other bags of mine! 😂😅
