Old-fashioned sew-on strap leather handlebar wraps for your drop bars. These leather straps wrap around your handlebars. Not coiled like tape, but lengthwise like the good old days. Natural leather gains a beautiful patina over time from the oils in your hands, like your dad's old briefcase. And they work just fine in the rain - we know, we're in Portland, Oregon! You sew these leather wraps on yourself which gives it added personality and character. Get creative with the lacing, make it your own! Comes complete with pre-punched stitching holes, and a sewing kit, including needle, waxed thread, and instruction. Can easily be cut to length with scissors or an exacto blade. The leather pictured here is dark brown. COLORS: Natural, Honey, Dark Brown, Black. Waxed thread available in White, Tan, Dark Brown, or Black. MATERIALS: Vegetable-tanned leather DIMENSIONS: 3" wide (to fit a 1" diameter bar) and 24" long MONOGRAMMING: Yes! This item can be monogrammed with up to 8 characters. If you'd like a monogram, please also purchase this monogram listing. EACH ITEM IS MADE TO ORDER with love in my workshop in Portland, Oregon. INTERNATIONAL orders, please note: our shipping and handling does not include your country's import taxes or VATs.
Walnut Studiolo
Hi, I'm Geoffrey Franklin. I'm an 8th generation Oregonian, born and raised in Beaverton and Weston, Oregon. I graduated from the University of Oregon Architecture School. I run Walnut Studiolo with my wife, Valerie. I design and craft all the products in my workshop, and Valerie runs the business side.
Bicycle accessories are my core focus but I love good design, as an architecture student, and I loved learning how to work leather as a medium. Eventually I also started enjoying the juxtaposition of leather and wood. In these products, I'm expressing my love for good design, architectural concepts, and natural materials in products that I would want to use myself…and I do use myself. I field-test all my products until I'm comfortable with them before listing them on our shop.
My goal is to make high-quality, beautiful, durable, and most of all functional solutions to everyday problems. Thank you for buying small and handmade. I put my heart in everything I make.
