Simple Way is an established UK leathercraft business based in County Durham, North East England, specialising in DIY leather craft kits, hand-sewn footwear and leather accessories. With over 50 years of experience, the business produces its kits in its own UK workshop, offering makers an accessible way to create practical, personalised leather goods.
Their extensive range of leather sewing kits includes designs for shoes, boots, sandals, handbags, satchels, purses, belts, wallets, keyrings and other accessories. Each kit comes with pre-cut, pre-punched leather pieces, specialist waxed sewing thread, a blunt needle and instructions, making leathercraft accessible without specialist sewing machinery or previous experience.
Alongside complete kits, Simple Way supplies leathercraft accessories, bag handles, straps, buckles, decorative leather trims, leather patches and hole punches for makers working on their own projects. They also offer ready-made leather bags, accessories and made-to-order footwear, including options for customers requiring wider or individually fitted shoes.
With a focus on traditional hand sewing, practical craftsmanship and making things yourself, Simple Way offers an enjoyable introduction to leatherworking, whether you're creating your first leather accessory or tackling a more ambitious bag-making or footwear project.
