From restored favorite jackets to one-of-a-kind custom commissions, G. Belle Leatherworks keeps the craft alive right here in the heart of the San Joaquin Valley.
G. Belle Leatherworks started with a simple conviction: leather deserves better than the trash can. Every scuff, every cracked seam, every worn strap tells a story — and most of the time, it can be brought back.
Based on East 6th Street in Madera, we've spent years honing the skills of hand-stitching, edge finishing, dyeing, and structural repair. Whether it's a jacket that's been with you through everything, a saddle that needs new life, or a custom piece you've been picturing, we treat every project like it's our own.
Cracks, tears, broken zippers, worn edges — we restore leather goods to their former condition, or close to it. Jackets, bags, furniture, you name it.
Got an idea? We'll help you shape it — wallets, belts, cuffs, folios, or something entirely your own. Pick the leather, pick the hardware, we handle the rest.
Professional restoration for saddles, bridles, reins, and other riding equipment. We respect the craftsmanship these pieces require.
Breathe new color into faded or damaged leather. We match existing tones or go bold with something entirely new.
Broken buckles, missing snaps, frayed straps — we source or fabricate the right replacements to complete the repair.
Not sure if your piece can be saved? Bring it in or send a photo. We'll give you an honest assessment and a clear plan — no pressure, no guesswork.
Call, email, or stop by the shop. Tell us what you have and what you need.
We inspect the piece, discuss options, and give you a straightforward estimate.
Your project goes on the bench. Every stitch, cut, and finish is done by hand.
Done when it's right. Collect it in person or we'll arrange delivery.
Whether it needs repair or a complete reinvention, G. Belle Leatherworks is here in Madera — ready to work.
