About

Welcome to Pinto Leathercraft, where passion for leather craftsmanship meets commitment to quality and sustainability. Our journey began with the desire to create products that move beyond passing trends and embrace durability and timeless beauty.

We were born from the conviction that leather is more than a material; it is a story and a connection with nature.

Inspired by the search for quality in a world of mass production, we chose to follow the path of traditional craftsmanship, where each piece is an expression of skill and care.

Each item is carefully crafted by hand, from cutting to sewing, celebrating the unique character of leather.

We seek to not only create beautiful products, but also ethical ones. Therefore, we carefully select quality leather from sustainable suppliers, honoring our commitment to the environment and the community.

We believe leather is a sustainable choice as it is biodegradable and connects people to history and nature. Our goal is to create products that last, that bring comfort and joy to the people who use them, and that can be enjoyed for generations.

We are located in a home studio in the North of Portugal, where we are inspired daily by the shapes and colors of the nature around us. Each piece is proudly made in Portugal with leather sourced only from ethical suppliers, ensuring that our products not only meet the highest quality standards, but also reflect our values ​​of social and environmental responsibility.

Thank you for joining us on this journey of craftsmanship, quality and sustainability. We hope our products not only enrich your life, but also inspire a world where caring for materials and people is at the heart of everything we do.

Meet the Founder

Hello! I'm Carlos Pinto, the founder and artisan behind Pinto Leathercraft. Allow me to share a little about my story and the journey that brought me to the world of leather crafts. I was born in 1974, into a family with roots in Minho, and from an early age I developed a deep appreciation for traditions and manual art.

However, it was during the 2020 pandemic, while we spent long months in confinement, that my passion for leather manifested itself intensely. Inspired by the need to create and the desire to reconnect with my roots, I dove head first into this fascinating world.

My journey so far has been marked by different professional experiences, but it was in the art of leather that I found my true passion. Each piece I produce is more than a simple object; It is the result of years of learning, dedication and love for the craft.

I believe that leather craftsmanship is not just about creating beautiful products, but also about preserving traditions and respecting the environment.

Pinto Leathercraft was born from the desire to create products that tell stories, inspire and bring a touch of authenticity to people's daily lives. Each piece is crafted with care and attention to detail, reflecting not only my skill as a craftsman, but also my commitment to quality and excellence.

Thank you for joining me on this journey of creation and discovery. I hope our products not only enrich your life, but also inspire a world where art, tradition and sustainability go hand in hand.
