Lockeland Leather Expands Studio + Showroom

Past to Present



Hi! If we haven’t met, I’m Joey.


Of the many hats I wear here at Lockeland Leather, being our Owner and Founder - without contest - is the most rewarding.


In the not so distant past, it was much easier to share company updates and the behind-the-scenes content of life in our little leather studio. As our business grows, these updates are few and far between, but all for good reason!


The last two years have been monumental for the growth and health of our business, and we’re more confident than ever that our leather goods and services are unique, memorable, and provide a great value for our clients.

Heeding the advice and encouragement from our collaborators, friends and family, we’ve decided to turn up the dial on our offering and experiences.


For now, I’d like to personally share an update that will set the stage for things to come...

We're Coming Home!

We’ve begun construction on our new Handcrafted Leather Studio and Showroom in Lockeland Spring, East Nashville, Tennessee.


I founded Lockeland Leather in 2015 while living in Lockeland Springs, a vibrant community that ultimately inspired my pursuit of leather craft. This community has been instrumental in encouraging + supporting our continued growth.


We couldn’t be more excited to return to where it all began!

About Our Expansion

Our new Studio and Showroom is a ~1,500 square foot facility that will allow us to spotlight our products and handcrafted process as we’ve always envisioned. With more space to entertain, we look forward to:

  • In-Studio Gifting Experiences
  • Hands-On Workshops
  • Community Events

In addition to inviting guests into our new home, our larger footprint will allow us to increase our efficiencies and better accommodate clients seeking our quality, handcrafted leather goods.


I’ve learned that our handcrafted leather studio is ever-changing. We’re excited to invite you to be a part of our story.


More to come soon! Until then, follow along for real-time updates on Instagram.
