THE STORY

Proper Supply Co. began the way most things worth making do — with a dissatisfaction for what already existed.

After design school in Italy, surrounded by some of the most skilled leather craftsmen in the world, my understanding of quality changed permanently. Not refined — changed. There was no acceptable, no close enough. There was only right. That standard came home with me, and it never left.

Nearly two decades of golf and design work followed. What started as a way to stay creative and master a new craft grew into something I couldn't set down. Creating goods that earn their place — on the course, off it, and for years past both — became the work.

Every piece I make at Proper Supply Co. is handcrafted in America from full-grain vegetable-tanned leathers and solid metal hardware. Selected for how they perform over time, not how they look on day one. The hides develop character over time. The hardware patinas and tells a story. The stitching is done by hand. Nothing ships until every detail has been resolved — not managed, not compromised, resolved.

We make goods rooted in golf, designed to carry beyond it. These aren't seasonal products. They're meant to be handed down. No margins for error. No shortcuts in material or construction.
