Who we are
Kimes Custom Creations - Brand Story
Crafted by Hand, Built with Purpose
At Kimes Custom Creations, every piece tells a story — a story of craftsmanship, dedication, and passion. Founded by Lee Kimes, an Air Force veteran, Kimes Custom Creations is built on the same values of precision, integrity, and resilience that shaped my military career.
After serving in the U.S. Air Force, I transitioned into the world of craftsmanship, bringing the skills and discipline I learned in service to every project. Whether it's custom leatherwork, woodworking, or other handmade creations, my mission is simple: to create unique, functional, and lasting pieces that reflect the artistry and skill behind them.
A Commitment to Quality and Custom Craftsmanship
Every creation at Kimes Custom Creations is crafted with the utmost care and respect for the materials I work with. I believe that great things aren’t mass-produced; they’re built by hand, one piece at a time, with attention to every detail. That’s why each item is custom-designed to fit the vision and needs of my clients — no two projects are ever alike.
Leatherwork is the heart of Kimes Custom Creations. From hand-stitched wallets, belts, and bags to personalized leather goods built to withstand the test of time, I use only the finest materials and time-tested techniques to bring your ideas to life. Each piece is made with a focus on durability, functionality, and timeless style.
In addition to leatherwork, I also offer custom woodworking. Whether it’s a handcrafted cutting board, a decorative wooden sign, or personalized home decor, my woodworking is a natural extension of the same attention to detail that goes into every leather creation. Like my leatherwork, each woodworking project is tailored to the specific needs and desires of my clients.
The name Kimes is a reflection of my legacy — a legacy of hard work, precision, and a dedication to craftsmanship. As a veteran, I understand the importance of trust and reliability, and that’s why I stand behind every item I create. My goal is to build pieces that aren’t just functional, but are meant to be treasured and passed down for generations.
A Journey of Craft and Creation
My journey into craftsmanship began years ago, long before I started Kimes Custom Creations. While serving in the Air Force, I found pride and fulfillment in creating tangible things with my hands. The meticulous attention to detail and focus on quality that I developed in the military are values I carry into every project today.
Whether you’re seeking a custom leather wallet that tells your story or a wooden cutting board that brings warmth to your kitchen, I approach every project with the same commitment to excellence. At Kimes Custom Creations, you're not just purchasing a product; you’re investing in something handmade with precision, care, and pride.
