Clo's General Leather Co. - Edmonton
About Clo's General Leather Co.
The name behind our brand comes from my last name Closen.
"Clo's General Leather Co" was inspired by my families upholstery shop back home in Saskatchewan "Closen's Upholstery" in the 1980's.
Being raised on a cattle and buffalo ranch in Saskatchewan, I spent most days as a child watching and learning from my elders on the farm and in the upholstery shop.
After graduating high school I became a truck driver in the oil patch and worked as a landscape equipment operator & journeyman welder. After working in the trades, the industry started to slow down and I was forced to do something different.
Leather work had became a hobby in 2012 while I found myself searching for the perfect wallet. Working with my hands and being creative is where my passion lies. I have always had a dream to have my own shop. In the fall of 2014 I was fortunate to find a small space in the Mercer warehouse called "Vacancy Hall" and before I knew it, my dream turned into reality.
After four years of determination and perseverance, Clo's General outgrew our first space in the mercer warehouse and moved into our second location in 2018 where we have been operating and growing over the past four years:
10047-80 Ave NW
Treaty No.6 Territory
Edmonton, Alberta
(Next to Ace Coffee Roasters)
We take pride in offering hand made quality goods that are built to withstand the test of time and believe in a Quality over Quantity lifestyle.
We wouldn't be where we are today if it wasn't for our family, friends and the group of talented local makers here in Edmonton that keep us motivated and inspired to keep chasing our vision and creating handmade, quality products.

It's amazing how much pride and craftsmanship everyone at the shop puts into their work, it only makes sense to shop locally.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Big fan of this shop - I've got a couple of things from Kyle when he was back at Mercer Tavern.
Finally had a chance to pop into his new space. It's gorgeous.
He let me pick his brain for a bit while he was adding some customization to my new mini trucker wallet.
10/10 would recommend.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Stopped by on Saturday April 16, 2022 to get a new belt. I was very impressed! They measured me so I got the perfect fit. They custom punched the holes and even stamped my initials on the belt. Extremely high quality (saddle leather) and ability to customize colors with hardware. I would highly recommend this shop.
