Meet The Makers

Hi, we are Seth and Caitie Diemel, the makers behind Diemel Leather Shop. We, with a business partner, run a pack station in the Sierra Nevada Mountains near Pinecrest, California. With a pack station comes constant need for saddle and tack repair, construction and general ingenuity, thus the Leather Shop tradition continued.
 
With a shop full of leather tools, I (Caitie) decided I could probably teach myself to tool leather. Over the last couple of years, with lots of practice, books, videos and patience, I have been able to carve so many beautiful things. Having worked on such a broad array of items with the pack station leather shop, Seth has the experience on the production side of the leather shop. Seth does a great job constructing all the leather goods.
 
We carve and create between busy schedules  revolving around a bunch of horses and mules and one beloved yellow Labrador named Granite. We share a deep rooted passion for agriculture and the western way of life and are honored to help keep the traditions of the West alive! Thank you for supporting us and other makers like us, who love the work they do!
