Leather Since 1933

What started as a modest family business has grown into a globally recognized enterprise. Dubbed “the Southern kings of leather” by GQ magazine, our road to success has been hard earned. Persevering through turbulent times, from our founding during the Great Depression through multiple wars and industry shutdowns, we forged ahead leaning on our tenacity and grit, never once compromising on our standards.

From Shoe Supplier to Industry Leader
A major key to our resilience has been our ability to evolve as demands change. Starting off as a supplier of shoemaking materials, we shifted focus and repositioned ourselves as a design resource for leather across a broad range of markets. We established Moore & Giles as a leader in this arena, and proudly remain the chief source for many home furnishing retailers today.

Leather Sources

Our leather comes from the finest raw material found throughout the world and is processed at historic tanneries, many over a century old and still family owned and operated. In the hands of these artisans, these hides are tanned, milled, and finished to thoughtfully and responsibly become part of our exquisite leather collection. Not only are these leathers notable for their look and feel, but the sheer number of color and texture options is simply unmatched — you are guaranteed to find the right leather for your project.

The resilience and longevity imbued in our leather are the same hallmarks that have guided our company since its founding, and will continue well into the future.

Makers of Timeless Leather Goods

After traveling the world, we were inspired to create a line of heirloom travel bags and accessories using the same quality leather our company is renowned for. We broadened our range to include home goods and furniture, so you can experience the luxury and resilience of our leather in every aspect of your life.
