Pop's Custom Cuts
I specialize in creating custom handbags crafted from full hide leather sourced locally in San Diego. As a retired veteran, I began this endeavor as a hobby. The logo displays Vista, CA, because that is where Pop's Custom Cuts was established.
Initially, I made denim cuts for the motorcycle community; however, due to life circumstances, I paused the process. In 2026, we moved forward and opened a full business called Pop's Custom Cuts, focusing on leather handbags. Each tote and handbag is designed by me, ensuring you receive a unique piece with a lifetime warranty.
Handmade leather purses, each one cut and stitched by hand. No two are alike — and that's the point.
