Design and manufacturing

Are you a brand looking to launch a new leather goods range? Partner with Rowdy to:

  • Develop unique designs tailored to your brand
  • Leverage our expertise in sustainable leather craftsmanship
  • Access our network of skilled artisans and quality materials
  • Benefit from our streamlined production process

From concept to creation, we'll guide you through every step, ensuring your products embody both your vision and our commitment to quality. Ready to start your journey?

Our collaborative design journey begins with your vision. We'll work closely with you to understand your brand, target market, and product requirements. Our experienced designers will then create initial sketches and 3D renderings, refining the concept through multiple iterations until we achieve the perfect balance of form and function that aligns with your brand identity.

Once the design is finalised, our skilled pattern makers take over. They translate the approved designs into precise patterns, considering every detail, from material properties to construction techniques. This crucial step ensures that your product not only looks great but is also practical to manufacture and comfortable to use.

With patterns in hand, we move to our Cape Town workshop, where our team of artisans brings your product to life. Each piece is crafted with meticulous attention to detail, using premium materials and time-honoured techniques. We maintain rigorous quality control throughout the process, from cutting and stitching to finishing and packaging. The result is a high-quality product that meets your specifications and our exacting standards.

Really happy with Rowdy’s workmanship and quality of product. So much so we’ll be ordering a second batch of goodies soon!
