The hands behind the tools.

Hello, My name is Ugur Alp, I was born and raised in Istanbul, Turkey. Everybody there calls me using my first name Ugur. However, outside Turkey I am know as Alp as it is so much easier to pronounce than my first name, additionally, I am very proud of carrying my fathers last name. I have lived in different countries and continents, the longest was in Australia. I am also an Australian citizen. Now I reside in Barcelona, Spain.

Since I was a little child, I have always been interested in building, creating and designing things. I am very much into sports but I have always had a creative side which one day I wanted to develop and turn into business.

I started working with leather in my late 20’s when I was in Australia. I am very interested in leather products such as boots, vests, jackets, bags, wallets etc. Previously, I was working in hospitality which involved long and irregular working hours.

With the arrival of Covid, like most of us, I had time to concentrate on my creative side and started focusing on my hobby. I ordered my first leather crafting tool kit and started making small goods like wallets, belts, laptop and tablet sleeves. Luckily thanks to the support of my partner and family I now have the privilege of turning my hobby into a business.

I now live in beautiful Spain there I am reaching out to you with my passionately crafted goods. I hope you enjoy browsing though this site finding out more about me and seeing my products.

If you have any questions whatsoever please do not hesitate to contact me and I will be delighted to answer them.

Thank you for your support and for visiting my workshop.
