We wanted to offer you a quick break in the middle of this week. A little mid-week fun for this “hump day”.
We recently stumbled across an old Townsend mini-site that we made a couple years ago and thought it would be fun to dust it off and share it.
Townsend Leather loves color, and made this Color Quiz Site to have some fun with the idea of “How Your Personality is Colored”.
Go ahead click the link below, take a minute to explore your Color Personality and have some fun.
Townsend Leather’s Color Personality Quiz
A couple simple choices and you get to see a tailored result that reveals something about your personality and color preference; take it a couple times and see the different results you get.
And when you’re done learning about your deep inner self; take your color inspiration and Townsend Leather product palette, and browse our sample store to really find all the colors, patterns, and leathers that speak to you.
And since we want this “quiz” to be fun (more like a quiz-show and less like a quiz-test). We want you to have a chance at winning a prize!
After you take the quiz and get inspired, make a Lightbox from our sample catalog – showcasing some of your favorite leather selections and share it on Facebook.

Townsend Leather was proud to participate in our local Relay For Life event.
Through tremendous team effort and very generous personal matching donations from our President, Jared, Townsend Leather raised just barely under $3,000!


Our tent at the walk event had a lot going on. We were raffling Yankees game tickets, and a TL Townsend Leather handbag, as well as selling cowbells, hats and other trinkets.
Another hot item at our tent was our custom made “Buck Cancer” Townsend Leather Bulls Relay Team T-Shirts.

We were also passing out Townsend Leather calendars, and even got some help from the local mascot!

We even had a “mascot” of our own, our crowd-pleasing, ready-to-entertain, HR Generalist, Ben, making sure no one went home empty handed.



And we had hand crafted temporary tattoos and hair extensions, to add some blign to your thing.














And dont forget the exciting game we setup for all tent visitors to enjoy – Pin the Mustache On The Bull!




It was a great day with great weather and great company. It was exciting and humbling to be a part of such a meaningful and powerful event.
The Fulton-Montgomery County Relay For Life event raised an astounding $108,481.68.
As always Townsend was happy to get involved in raising money for cancer research through the events and fundraisers we did in the building and at the Relay event. And we eagerly look forward to next year!

Townsend Leather’s new Abstract Art Series showcasing the Eastern Lattice and Striations cowhide was shown in the May 2013 edition of Interior Design Magazine.


The 2013 annual Fulton Montgomery New York Livability Magazine featured a mention of Townsend Leather and upstate New York manufacturing.

The “We’ve Got It Made” article said:
Local Manufacturers produce wide variety of Quality goods
FOLLOWING TRADITION
Leather-making shares in the economic tradition here, as there were more than 300 leather companies in Johnstown and Gloversville in the late 1800s and early 1900s. About a dozen leather companies operate here today, notably Townsend Leather, which makes upholstery leather for aircraft, yachts and automobiles…
The local Chamber of Commerce was proud to mention Townsend, and Townsend is equally proud to be shown as an example of quality manufacturing going strong in upstate New York.
Townsend Leather’s sister company, The Leather Institute – the experts in leather care, cleaning, maintenance and services – just spread its expertise even further across the globe.
The Leather Institute has a long list of expertly trained affiliates, who deeply understand the ins and outs of The Leather Institute’s proprietary processes that preserve the beauty and prolong the service life of leather. They now have added one more to that list, the leading business jet operator in Asia, MetroJet, based in Hong Kong.
MetroJet announced the partnership on their website yesterday, see the Leather Institute MetroJet Press Release here

We get a lot of request for custom leather, color matched leather, and even personality matched leather and we are always delighted to fulfill those requests.
Recently we were given a couple inch rectangle of fabric and asked to match the blues and golds from the piece.
The craftsmen at Townsend were excited for the challenge.

Using our state-of-the-art color matching technology, paired with our experts keen eyes we were able to determine the specific color attributes of each desired color.
The customer was looking for leather to match 2 of the blues, the dark stripe in the center, and the gold tone of their fabric. Thy had a particular embossing pattern in mind, but still wanted to leather to have a feeling that was similar to the stitching of the fabric.
So after the color matching process was complete, the look effects were created.
Each piece is hand rubbed to get the shading just right, to build the layers of color, and to apply the streaking/line effect.
After passing through so many expert hands and by so many expert minds, Townsend was able to provide a stunning set of leathers.

Townsend Leather continues to expand its reach to serve you better.
