These people are the best overly helpful Superior knowledge base I love the scrap piles as Im experimenting and just learning and theyre always helpful with a tip or a trick not to mention if you tack for your horses theyve got an entire floor that has that too so glad they havent gone out of business due to covid

Everything you need for Leather work, from domestic to industrial they can order pretty much anything you would want.It will be 100 years old in 2023.

This place is a mainstay of the Portland I know and love. We dont need any more yogurt shops or whatever. We need places like this.

My leather supplier for several years now. I always enjoy stopping in and picking up a few hides!

Lots of stock at good prices with helpful staff

Love these guys! They are hanging in there amid all the turmoil in Portland.

Love the smell of leather!

Amazing service, and a absolutely epic selection of leather to choose from for any of your leather projects.

Great place! Extremely helpful. Great selection.

Oregon Leather is always fantastic. Some of my visits Ive come across some relatively gruff sales/staff, but even the people who arent chatty and chipper are always wonderfully knowledgeable and helpful.The array of materials, tools, and accessories available here is astounding. Not to mention, the prices are darn good. It may be possible to find better prices somewhere - probably online - but this is one precious local business. Reasonable, with a wide selection, and always excellent information available from the staff.Go here. Check it out and fall in love.

Im a newbie hobbiest leather crafter and the staff here are extremely helpful, always willing to guide your selection of materials and give little verbal tutorials on processes!IMO they have a great selection of leather, hardware, tools, and related materials!Im very grateful for their aid and guidance.

This is the best place to grab your leatherworking needs. Abdul is amazing and very knowledgeable! Im so happy to support a local Portland stapple.

Ive received some really excellent service and some thats been just okay. It seems to depend on the person and the day. The store has really good purses and jackets, which is mostly what Ive looked for. I have a feeling that if you want other, more specifically leather-working things, that youd meet with the best reception if you knew what you were doing and exactly what you needed to buy. Im not sure theyd be super happy to talk anybody through a big project-specific learning process. But they might. It probably depends on personal chemistry. I really like the store and return because of the quality and the occasional great service.

Best leather shop around for miles! You want good customer service and a friendly store? Go here

I absolutely love this store! They have everything a hobbyist would possibly need and fantastic prices too. Awesome customer service and super knowledgeable staff.

I love this place!

This is the best place to purchase hides for crafting. Their selection and knowledge of the products is brilliant. They have a good selection of traditional hardware like brass buckles and loops at very reasonable prices.If I can buy it here I do, I love to support such a solid grassroots Portland company.

Best selection in PDX best peeps.

Not the companies fault buttried to go theretoday couldnt get to the door from the homeless camp out front

This is hands down the best place to go for leather and supplies. The friendly staff is ready to help out with good advice no matter the project.

Nice selection of affordable good quality leather jackets. They sell supplies for people making leather goods.

Great people and store. Very helpful

Great place if you’re a beginner like I am. The two employees that helped me were very patient with my lack of knowledge and readily happy to help me understand. I will be going back for years to come.

Originally found this place when I was getting into leather working. They have an amazing selection of leathers, dyes, tools and hardware. After buying a Harley I rediscovered this as the BEST place to buy chaps, pants, and cuts (vests). By far the best prices, quality is higher and as a female, I appreciate that they have womens riding gear meant for actual riding. More then can be said about a lot of big name motorcycle companies whom I shall not name. Want leather saddle bags? Be prepared to pay 1/4 of the price the other places charge you.

The staff at Oregon Leather Company are amazing. They always go above and beyond. This location has a great selection of leather, tools, hardware, supplies, and more. Their prices can be high but the quality and service makes it worth top dollar. They also have a huge selection of scrap and discount leather but be prepared to dig for it. I find it fun to dig around in their discounted stock for quality leather at lower prices. I highly recommend Oregon Leather Company. It is a neat store to browse around even if you dont have specific leather needs.

Of the three days we spent in Portland, The Oregon Leather Company was a highlight. It is a rare treat to find a store that has over 100 years of history and still seems focused in its original goals - to provide leather and hand-made leather products. The store is packed with finished and unfinished leather hides. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Prices are reasonable. I highly recommend people stopping by the store!

Love this place, reasonably priced and very very good quality

This has always been one of my favorite places. Since I crash landed in 2001. I will miss the faces that welcomed me into the place of weird. It will always be held in fondness for this leather worker.

Love this place, replaced my old belt that I bout here 4-5 years ago today after I left and was back home found it to be a little tight, I called them up and they said no problem I can exchange it. As long as Im in portland and they stay in business I will get all my belts here totally worth $50

Unique store that feels like youre stepping back in time. Prices slightly cheaper than Tandy and other online sellers for what I needed. Had to ask for leatherworking tools as most are kept under the counter or in the back, so know what you want or be able to describe it before going. Cant complain about service. Not exactly quick but very friendly and helpful, which to me is better than fast but impersonal. A great place to spend some time or bring visitors to the city.

We’ve been coming to Oregon Leather for over 5 years and the staff are amazing. We usually work with Abdul, he’s so knowledgeable and knows every product and hide in stock. The prices are great and the selection is unbeatable.

For many years this has been my must visit stop for scale model larimer needs! The scrap bins are the best, and I love digging through all of them, including the ones in the back. Awesome assortment of findings, although most are more suitable for life size than scale, however Ive found many upstairs that work as well. Even got a harness diagram from them years ago which had some alternate terms for the various harness straps (my other sources were from the Midwest and Europe).

Ive manufactured custom leather goods and accessories for outdoors people and law enforcement for more than 50 years. The people are knowledgeable, friendly, and full of great ideas. They have great quality at very reasonable prices, and Ive never been disappointed while shopping at Oregon Leather Company.

Great local leather store in the heart of downtown. Theyve got a great selection of hides and accessories to choose from. The store caters mostly to the bridle and saddle crowd, but theyre more than happy to help anyone who walks in. Full range of buckles and rings as well as dyes and finishes.

So many amazing experiences here!!! I would pay extra for the service alone but guess what???? They have the best prices around and an enormous selection. I find myself popping in just to say hi to the friendly people that work there and it smells great!

Love this place. A go-to place for my antique camera leather restoration projects. The staff is always friendly and helpful.

The customer service is outstanding. Every time I walk in Im comforted by their willing to help me in every/any way they can. They were even willing to guide me towards people they know who have leather sewing machines (even though it wasnt going to add to their bottom line ).In addition, they have a wide selection of hides, and tools/supplies for everything you may be wanting to work on.Im very grateful for their willingness to support the leather artisanship community in Portland.

The staff here are wonderfully helpful, and the selection of leather thicknesses, types, and colors is pretty large (not to mention the tool selection). It was an enjoyable excursion.

Huge selection of scrap pieces and Manzanita was so kind and helpful with me dithering over hardware. Thank you!

Friendly staff, great selection, and good prices. Definitely recommend!

Ive been going to Oregon Leather Co. On and off all my life, between my father working leathe, and now myself... They are always helpful, and willing to go through back stock to help me find the exact hides I need for my projects. They will custom order paints and dyes, and offer advise when needed.

I make leather journals and this place has a wonderful supply of beautiful leathers in all sorts of thicknesses and colours.. They sell by weight. I found a small strip in the scrap bin to use for a bracelet and because it weighed practically nothing they to gave to me for free. The only place I go to buy leather.

I have been shopping this store for YEARS. I have spent THOUSANDS of dollars here. There new male employee has made it clear that I have been supporting the wrong busines. This fellow didn’t even know how to use the adding machine. Didn’t know and mis applied store policy. Doesn’t know his products. Absolutely insulting to me as a customer misrepresented the issue that HE created after I was forced to demand a manager. So I am ticked and I leave. I write this post, well another more dramatic version. Then I call and Speak to the owner. The owner, a nice enough fellow, allows me to vent and share this frustration and offers a very heartfelt apology that was well-timed and well received. I will try them again, however I shall never deal with this imbecile again.

Great customer service and a very knowledgeable staff.

Friendly, knowledgeable staff. Everything you would need from a leather store.

Great place for leather supplies. I need some thread to repair my leather bag. They a large selection of thread and needles for leather.

I needed help restoring some vintage luggage and they were very helpful. They had just what I needed and gave advice on how I should finish off my project.Great place to look around too.

Havent been here in years, but love the smell of the leTher when you walk in the door.

Great Experience. I do a monthly trip and have gotten to know some of the staff and see some great staff retire. Will keep going here as long I am still in the area

Amazing selection, great people who know the biz in and out. They can be stern as the Oregon Doc pointed out, but nothing to whine about or be offended over. Also great scrap bins with lower prices for smaller projects.

ALWAYS find what i need THERE, since I walked thru the door, first time in late 80s. Knowledgeable Staff, helpful and GREAT for making your own METAL bracelets, chokers, vests, etc. Solid color selection TOO! DIG! 👍😉

Their website never works correctly and nothing but a pain to try and find working pages, suggest they get their site together, it did redirect me to a competitor so I am thankful for that.

Great place to get buckskin.. as all kinds of leather. Good price.

Super helpful and really nice!! would definitely drive back here to purchase my leather goods. So much stuff to choose from!

Had a poor experience. I went in looking to get some basic tools and leather for a small project and the staff was really rude and dismissive, rolling their eyes and interrupting me a lot while I was trying to explain what I was looking for.

What a awesome store. Great selection good prices and the best people

Awful customer service. Called for a price check on an item and was disconnected twice and then was told by the owner they were to busy to help me. Not the first time Ive had problems. Ill stick with Tandy and online orders from now on.

They have everything thats leather: hides in colors, tools, wallets, clothing and more. Very pleasant and knowledgeable staff.

Amazing selection, knowledgeable staff, and free parking. One of my favorite places for project supplies and inspiration.

They were highly recommend and after my first visit I agree:)

I have been buying my chordahyde lace here for 20 years. Love these people

Me and my freind went there because we needed information for a school project and the people there were so nice. Its also really cool looking in there.

Super selection and quality. I make moccasins and leather clothing, these guys are my go-to place.

They have so much good stuff and are knowledgeable and helpful..

Huge warehouse of leather and tools for making stuff. The stuff is super helpful. If nothing, its a cool place to wander.

Great staff, extensive selection of hydes, saddlery, leather goods, and the like.

Amazing selection, very friendly and helpful staff. This place is the real deal.

Great selection....great customer service!

They have anything you could ever need!

Great place to shop

Good fun had by all

Best people and service ever!!!!

The best!

Love!!
