Our Story
What started out as a hobby in 2008 quickly became a passion. Pride in the craftsmanship of a handmade leather belt developed into a love and desire to create more.
Built by Hand.
Made with Purpose.
Patterns were dreamed of and hand drawn. Prototypes were put together. Each hide was specifically chosen with a particular product in mind.
And with every piece we created, the product became a little better than the one before it.
From a Hobby to Benjamin Bags
That passion for working with leather continued to grow. In 2016, Benjamin Bags was born. Now, some ten years later, that same attention to detail and pride in craftsmanship remain at the heart of everything we make.

The Story Behind Our Handbags
Most of our bags began as custom pieces crafted for friends. As our business grew and word spread, customers came to us with their own specific needs and ideas.
Those needs became part of the creation — part of what made each particular bag special.
