Title: Custom handmade exotic/non exotic skin leather
Post by: wslee on May 02, 2018, 06:26:52 AM: Hi,

May I know if there is any good custom handmade exotic/no exotic leather strap in Malaysia?

If no, any recommendation for overseas supplier. Anyone has any experience in getting exotic skin leather strap from overseas,any problem when coming into Malaysia?

I couldn't recall the name of the shop but there's a shop near the grocer at publika (same floor) that sells them premade & custom made. The boss shown me some sample leather & told me that it will be made in Thailand for exotic skin & local made for calf skin. Hope this helps. Happy strap hunting !

Never know there's such place in Publika, Definately will check out. By the way, how much did they charge? Should be quite high on the price... :-\

If not mistaken it's about rm900 - 1k for exotic materials. Please do share your experience with them if u pull the trigger?
