The Aegis Forge Leather works is a small female family owned and operated business located out of Warrenton, Oregon.

We strive to create beautiful, unique, handmade leather apparel & accessories for people of all walks of life, across all generations.

Personalization & individualized is the core of our business model. We believe that every bag should be a one of a kind creation. From unique hides, to string color; we know that every bag can be it's own work of art.

We look forward to working with you to create your vision into a work of art.

The biggest drive for wanting to creating our own bags was and is customization. I love so many brands, but always wanted to change a color here or add a pocket there. We strive to create individual unique bags at an affordable price. We use hardware that allows for reversible, and interchangeability with out bags. We sell individual mini handle in a variety colors and our hardware makes it a breeze to change out and customize to your hearts desire.

Hand-Stitching
Saddle stitching is a method used to stitch together two or more pieces of leather. This stitch style must be executed by hand and can’t be replicated by a machine. Saddle stitching is not only the strongest way to stitch leather goods, but it can also be the most beautiful.

How important is saddle stitching? To us, it’s one of the most important elements in the quality and construction of our products.

A saddle stitch is executed with a single length of thread and two needles, one tied to either end. The thread passes through the material on either side creating a figure eight pattern. A single thread passing over itself creates enough friction to maintain the integrity of the stitching even if one stitch fails. In other words, if one stitch is cut the rest of the stitches will stay in place and won’t unravel.

We have a small team here at The Aegis Forge Leather Works.

We consist of a two person, husband and wife team and an occasion design helper, our daughter. We are based out of our home and are currently in the works to upgrade to a larger workspace.

We are lucky enough to have a craft room and that is where we create and photograph our bags.
