Enve
Meet the man behind the hide—our boy Nick Van Eck aka Enve.
He continues his family’s hide work legacy from his home studio in Brantford, Ontario. Using skills he learned from his dad, Enve now designs, cuts and sews by hand a wide range of leather goods using only the highest quality hides and nylon stitching.
