Onder is great at what he does. My favorite leather jacket got a big rip in the sleeve and he fixed it up beautifully. You’d never know it had been damaged. Very nice guy, too.

Got a belt shortened and couldn’t be happier with the results. The owner Önder is fast and super helpful.
Scheduling and finding the studio took a little effort but it’s well worth it. The space is really cool!

Onder was a real pleasure to work with. He totally restored and dyed my very faded Roland Sands motorcycle jacket which now looks brand new. He does lots of custom leather work also and really knows his stuff. Totally recommend!
