The year was 1938 and under the original name of Boston Novelty Company they made leather tags, name plates, cases, bags, etc. In the early 1940s the name changed to Boston Leather and the focus turned to law enforcement.
They have expanded into other areas but always with an accentuation on the public service market. They have broadened their fire-related line and have introduced police K-9 items. They have the ability to manufacture custom leather Products but their bread and butter is the "Uniformed Professional."
Leather remains the material of choice. It is the best material for the items that they manufacture. When worn or carried, leather becomes a part of you. It is comfortable, long lasting, very strong, and good looking.
All items sold by them are made in their shop in Sterling, Illinois. They are committed to domestic manufacturing. All leather used is full grain from U.S. steers. All leather is tanned in the U.S.A. They manufacture a quality item and stand behind it fully. You will not buy a better product anywhere.
