02. the custom shop
Our Upstate NY maker workshop specializes in the creation of custom gifts or marketing tokens for your small business, corporate or academic events. As well as favors for weddings, reunions and other gatherings where a handmade keepsake adds just a little extra.
The opportunity is endless when it comes to customization and we can work with you to bring your vision to life - anything from custom leather handles for high end architecture firms to leather mobile POS "holsters" for restaurants.
Partner with us on custom branded leather coasters, journals, key clips and more from our collection of leather goods.
04. our story
The Local Branch started in 2009 while maker duo Blaine & Mackenzie were forging their path in their craft - pioneering an ethos in artisan, quality, USA made leather and apparel goods.
Their journey started out of an Airstream trailer and has taken them all across America - and now they find themselves, back to their roots with a brick and mortar shop in the Finger Lakes Region.
Still crafting all their leather and canvas goods in small batches by hand, slowly, thoughtfully and intentionally growing their brand with a loyal, mighty little team by their side.
Handcrafted, well-traveled, USA made.
