55 years

55 years celebrating a love of leather and limitless craft.

55 diamonds, 55 years, 55 moments of craft of love of leather. Townsend Leather is 55 years old this year, founded in 1969, and still hungry for the future – we are celebrating and honoring a love of leather and limitless craft.

In September of 2024 Townsend Leather celebrates a birthday of 55 years and we are looking forward to a year of celebration and honoring. This year will be a continuous celebration of our history and our future, of what it took to get to today, and where we are going, of the people who lead the way and the people who are taking the reigns.

We kicked things off this fall with our annual longevity lunch where we took a day to focus on us, on each other, on the history and the future. This year we will take a flight through history, and ride of memories, feel the celebration of 55 years of Townsend Leather and the legends that brought us to today.

Here is a very brief remixed recap video of the photos, videos, and memories we talked about at our Longevity Luncheon. It certainly doesn’t cover it all, but it is a fun smattering of good times.

Leaning into our “the sky’s the limit” attitude this year, we will be riding high and feeling the breeze all year as we find little moments to celebrate our history and look out to the horizon of our bright future.

So much more to come on this, we are excited.
