Our leather is sourced locally at Oregon Leather, as well as from a tannery in
Pennsylvania, and hand-selected for its quality. Our hides are cut into straps with a
hydraulic press to ensure precision and consistency. NOTE: Our tan leather might feel stiff at
first, but it will soften and darken to a lovely caramel brown with use.
Hardware can take a bag from looking homemade to truly professional—and it's not hard to
do! With a few basic tools, you'll be able to set rivets, snaps, magnetic closures and more. All of
our hardware is real metal and strong enough to hold up to years of wear and tear.

I started out sewing totebags and handbags from quilting cotton. I liked the patterns and colors available but I got really tired of standing over the hot iron attaching fusible interfacing. Then I discovered waxed canvas - no more ironing board at all, it presses well with just my fingers, holds its shape, and makes the bags feel high quality. No more quilting cotton for me!
United StatesGreat looking sturdy canvas. It was fun to work with and the bag looks sophisticated in this material. The bag exterior doesn’t require interfacing, and no ironing either; the seams were simply finger pressed. For my bag making, I get all of my waxed canvas material from Klumhouse.
United StatesPerfect waxed canvas for my modified Merchant and Mills Field Belt. Very sturdy and good looking. Also used medium double capped rivets from Klimt House.
United StatesReceiving my package from Klum never disappoints. The exceptional care provided to ensure my fabric was not marred or creased was par for the course. The quality of the product exceeded expectations. Shipping was speedy, a luxury these days!
United StatesVery satisfied with the quality of this canvas. Shipped very well packed.
United StatesVery good quality
United StatesI write this as an unashamed waxed canvas addict. I cannot stop making bags and now every one of my female family members will be receiving a tote made from this beautiful waxed canvas for Christmas. The guys are getting Dopp kits. I ordered crimson, burgundy, navy and dark brown and I am over the moon for the crimson. This fabric is lighter weight than some I have bought off Etsy, but I like the tight weave and smooth look of this fabric. It arrived nicely rolled and in decent time via UPS. I want to try all the colors now!
United StatesLove the waxed canvas! I am making lined waxed canvas wine totes and they are awesome!
United StatesBeautiful colors that I can’t wait to work with. Every female in the family is getting a Portland bag for Christmas.
United StatesGreat quality wax canvas which is not only easy to sew with but makes for a high quality bag!
United StatesReally high quality waxed canvas, smooth edges with no folds or crinkling. It was shipped rolled with care and the color is well matched to the image which is helpful! Can't wait to sew with it!
Yay glad to hear it! Thanks, Ann!
United StatesHave enjoyed working with this material!
Awesome. Glad to hear it, Karen!
United StatesArrived rolled in beautiful condition
United StatesI love the hand of your waxed canvas. It’s not as thick and board stiff as others I’ve used. Surprisingly, the finished project had great structure…more than I expected from the light feel of it! Definitely will be ordering more.
United StatesThe canvas’s weight is a little lighter than what I usually work with - which makes the lighter colors more sheer, but I love them all! Ordered four colors that look even better in person than the site. Very satisfied and will buy more!
United StatesI’d never sewn with waxed canvas before, but was super excited to try it for a tote! I combined a few patterns to come up with my own design, and I love the result!! Easy to sew on my domestic Brother machine, just had to clean it up afterward. Definitely recommend this fabric to anyone wanting to experiment with waxed canvas!! Thank you!
