A&M leathers? / recommendations for hand made leathers??

Iconic944ss · 15-Nov-2005, 13:22

A mate is looking to buy some hand made leathers and we cant find any reference to A&M leathers still being open in the North East - another great manufacturer sadly gone under?

So - otherwise - recommendations for handmade leathers please?

Cheers - Frank

I had a BKS one piece made to measure a few years ago. Top quality but expensive and very heavy. When the time comes to get another I will definitley go there again as I cant get off the peg to fit me. Some friends had suits by Crowtree, AM, and Scott and they were all good quality and less expensive. I think BKS are wanting about £1500 now for a suit!

Frank, try Scott Leathers at Barnard Castle, Co. Durham. Good stuff and reasonably priced.
