About Us.

This is skinpressedtight – We create wearable metal- and leather art. Sustainably made by hand. Painted by the duality of romanticism and brutalism articulated in smooth leathers, sharp chains & ornate patterns.

Pieces draw influence from alternative fashion movements like post-fetish wear and dark gothic themes, but also thrive in exploring unconventional materials and shapes. We offer a small variety of customizable garments and accessories like belts, chokers and necklaces – as well as some louder and heavier oddities & commissions.

 

 

Made with reclaimed genuine leathers sourced exclusively from upcycled garments, scraps and deadstock, to create a soothing and breathable, yet robust and long-lasting experience to wear. Sown together using primarily saddle stitch for improved resilience.

As hardware, a curated selection of stainless steel and other nickel-tested metals. Using the best available option for each part of the composition, ensuring a refined finish that only bites where it should. Each part locked in place and with just the right heft. 

Encore the occasional trace of paint crawls upon the sooth canvas of skin. Hand-painted details in durable leather-paint.

Fashion made to last.
