The Bond
Brothers Will and Joe Harrington grew up as rivals, constantly competing for everything. That changed when they both apprenticed under Marcus Aldridge, a world-renowned master leatherworker. The long days of training transformed their rivalry into partnership, teaching them that leather goods are symbols of character, heritage, and individuality
Founding the Company
After decades of mastering our craft and dreaming of building something greater, we took the leap and founded Harrington Leather Co. Together, brothers Will and Joe set out to revive the timeless art of leatherworking, blending traditional techniques with modern durability and style.
The Heart of Our Craft
Our workshop became the beating heart of Harrington Leather Co. Every piece is still touched by skilled hands, ensuring thousands can experience the quality, durability, and style of our heritage designs. This commitment to handcrafted excellence marked the beginning of Harrington as a trusted name in leather goods.
Harrington Leather Goods
Rooted in the traditions of British craftsmanship, Harrington leather goods are designed in London with timeless attention to detail and heritage. Each piece also carries the easy confidence and practicality of American style, shaped by open roads, broad horizons, and a spirit of resilience. Together, these influences create a collection that blends refinement with character—crafted for those who value authenticity, quality, and enduring style.
About Us
We didn’t begin as partners but as brothers working side by side in a small workshop, learning the craft under the steady guidance of those who came before us. Day after day we handled leather, tools and heat, realising that we shared more than a trade. We shared a way of thinking. To us, a leather bag was never just something to carry but a reflection of character, heritage and the quiet pride of owning something made with care.
Long hours turned routine into respect, and from that respect came our vision. We wanted to bring the spirit of traditional leatherwork into the modern world while honouring the methods that shaped it. From that commitment Harrington Leather Goods took form.
Two Different Roots
Although we grew up under the same roof, our perspectives could not have been more different. Will was drawn to structure and refinement, studying the quiet discipline of British craftsmanship and the small details that give a piece its character. Joe was pulled in another direction, favouring practicality, resilience and the sort of honest, hard-wearing kit you can rely on without thinking.
One saw beauty in precision. The other valued strength and purpose. Two different instincts, shaped by the same childhood yet guided by different eyes. Together, they formed a partnership that defines Harrington Leather Goods, blending refinement with durability in every piece we make.
A Master’s Guidance
Our turning point came under the guidance of a master leatherworker who held to old-world standards without compromise. In his workshop we learnt far more than how to cut, stitch and shape. We learnt to respect the material, to understand its behaviour, and to treat every stage of the process with intention.
He taught us that excellence lives in the details. The edge of a strap, the tension of a stitch, the patience required to finish a surface by hand. Nothing was rushed, nothing overlooked. Those lessons shaped the foundation of Harrington Leather Goods and remain at the heart of everything we make.
A Legacy in Every Piece
From this journey, Harrington Leather Goods took shape. More than a workshop, it became the meeting of two perspectives and a shared respect for craft. The refinement we grew up admiring and the resilience we learnt through experience came together in every bag we set out to make.
Our purpose has stayed the same. We honour heritage with techniques that have stood the test of time. We build with integrity so each piece endures years of use. And we create leather goods with character, not mass production, so they reflect the people who carry them.
Every Harrington piece continues that original belief. To make something timeless, honest and long lasting, just as it was in the workshop where two brothers learnt their craft and a vision found its place in the world.
