In Blue started in 2008, after a relocation from bustling Chicago to a small farm in Southern Illinois. I bought a sewing machine on the way down, learned how to work it, and never looked back. Going from "I" to "we" with a team of leather working magicians and 50,000+ items in sales, In Blue has gone from one brick and mortar shop to a studio that we call home.
Now located in Asheville, NC, In Blue resides in a converted warehouse studio space in West Asheville. Together we make each piece by hand every day. We start with top grain cowhides, trace and cut our pattern pieces, sew 'em up, stamp down our ink, and ship them to your door.
It has been our pleasure to take our wares on the road, attending and vending many major music and arts festivals, including (but not limited to) Bonnaroo Music and Arts Festival, Merle Fest, Pitchfork Music Festival, and the Newport Folk Festival.
Most importantly, we love what we do, and it means the world to the In Blue team to be able to bring you a personalized craft and a unique way to express yourself.
