Leather With Character
150 Years Of Tradition
Character, you notice it immediately in our leathers. It’s in their natural grain and saturated colors, supple hand and durable life. Most of all, you notice it as the years pass and in the rich patina that comes through. We’ve been making leathers traditionally since 1867. Originally from Toronto, Canada, today Wickett & Craig calls Curwensville, Pennsylvania home, making it one of only two remaining vegetable tanneries in the U.S.A. Located on more than 16 acres of land, the state-of-the-art facility produces 4,500,000 square feet of both light- and heavy-weight leathers annually. The former are used to craft luxury goods, like shoes, bags and belts, while the latter are used to make traditional equestrian gear, including saddles, bridles and straps.
