Meet the Maker
Bill Carnes
Clintonville Leather
I have been creating custom leatherwork for the last 9 years on Etsy and my own shop. I focus on belts with handmade hardware but can also make bags and wallets. In the last 9 years one of the few things I have made is a saddle. If it is not a saddle I can probably help.
I can use many of the top leathers from all over the world.
I can saddle stitch by hand or use an industrial sewing machine.
I am able to create custom tooling and designwork as well as create custom metal hardware.
I travelled across the US on my bicycle and operated a bicycle taxi for 12 years and focus on making things with a high level of durability for active hard working folks.

Apr 1, 2024I'm a repeat customer and my latest project with Bill was something for myself. Bill is easy to work with and I already knew his work would be amazing. I'm so happy and will wear my belt every day for the rest of my life.

Jun 11, 2020I am very happy with my wallet. This was my first experience with this site .Bill with Clintonville Leather was great to work with and was excellent at explaining the options I could chose from for the wallet. If you want a top quality leather product give Bill a shot. My wallet is “top shelf”!

Jan 2, 2023The belts are so beautiful and my husband (hard to buy for) was impressed at the quality of materials and workmanship. Bill was responsive as we did have several back and forths with decisions on details. I met him for pick up as I was local. Bill was great to work with and I plan to be back for more belts. Actually just thought of an idea for myself.
