Laurie Lee Custom Leather

Refreshing vintage jackets (and Stan Smiths) with handpainted typography and a dash of humor

As a statement leather jacket that’s more personable than something straight off the rack, London-based Laurie Lee’s one-of-a-kind pieces are an enticing option. She transforms quality vintage leather jackets found in secondhand stores and paints them with humorous sayings reserved for the bold, like “Potatoes Gonna Potate” and “Total Douchebag.” Due to their unique nature, jackets will set you back more than a couple hundred of dollars, but Lee also has more affordable caps and shoes on offer.

Peruse one-of-a-kind pieces at Laurie Lee’s webshop, or request a custom piece; Lee also paints on leather handbags, trousers, shoes and more.
