Price range: See on Amazon

What we liked

  • + Pre-cut and pre-punched parts mean no cutting or hole punching before you start lacing
  • + Tooling leather back can be stamped, carved or dyed, or left plain, before assembly
  • + Kit includes the needle, lace, design patterns and instructions, and is made in the USA per the listing

Trade-offs

  • - Assembled with lace through pre-punched holes, so it teaches lacing rather than saddle stitching with thread
  • - Interior is a pre-finished part with 4 card pockets, leaving only the back panel to customize
