Foxblade Trading manufactures and supplies traditionally made historic and contemporary leatherwork and accessories. We supply to re-enactors, TV and film companies, museums, theatres, LARP, and customers who just want a quality bespoke item.
A full list of what we have made over the last 40 years would be endless but below is a list of some of the historic items. We have supplied to The National Trust, English Heritage, The National Trust for Scotland, and many museums in the UK and across the world. Most people have seen our products on TV or film they just didn't know we made them.
Most items are bespoke so we will need to discuss what you want. Delivery times are reliant on us being able to get the raw materials and how busy our order book is. We pride ourselves on communicating with our customers and delivering on time.
Here is the latest price list for 2024. Please note this is only a small sample of what I can make with guideline prices as most of what I do is bespoke, if you have any questions please EMAIL me foxbladeshoes@outlook.com
Please note I'm so busy on the workshop I can only update this website when I have some free time so for all enquiries and orders please email foxbladeshoes@outlook.com
