The Art of Leather
Born in Cape Town, shaped by history.
Smithco is a journey of rediscovery—a blend of courage and perseverance, tradition and contemporary style. Each piece is made to hold space for the bold, the quiet, the curious. Built to last the journey, because some things—like stories, scars, and good leather—only get better with time.

The Essence
Made to Move With You—At Smithco Leather, I craft bags and accessories that are built to last—and made to go places. Inspired by raw materials, bold colour, and the freedom of the open road, every piece is designed to be lived in, not just looked at.
 
The Lifestyle
For the wild at heart (and the organised in spirit)—Whether you're chasing sunsets, heading to a meeting, or running out for coffee—my bags are made to keep up with your life, wherever it leads.
 
The Craft
Simple. Strong. Uncomplicated. I believe in the beauty of well-made things. No fuss, no frills—just solid craftsmanship, natural materials, and thoughtful design that gets better with time.
 
The Colour
Dare to Stand Out—From bold brights to classic tones, my colourways let you express your style without shouting. Leather doesn't have to be boring—and neither do you.
 
The Promise
Built for the Long Haul—Every Smithco piece is made with care—full grain leather, strong stitching, and durable straps that won’t give in. Designed to age beautifully and carry your story along the way. #JoinTheJourney
