Needle & Thread Mfg is a privately owned and operated manufacturing company based in Birmingham, Alabama. The idea was founded in the winter of 2014 when Cole Armistead, a high school student and self taught maker, purchased a cheap hide of leather. With this first hide, he diligently began to teach himself the craft and realize his designs. After nearly two years in the works, Needle & Thread Manufacturing Co. was brought to life. Since October 1st, 2016, our goal has been to provide top notch leather goods at a fair price. All of our goods are manufactured by hand with ethically sourced materials and are held to a standard of no less than the finest of quality.
