Handmade Badalassi Pueblo Leather Sunglasses Sleeve – Full Grain Italian Leather

This sunglasses sleeve is handmade in my Norfolk workshop using genuine Badalassi Pueblo leather from Tuscany, Italy. Designed to protect your glasses while keeping things simple, it's slim enough to slip into a bag or jacket pocket without adding unnecessary bulk.

Badalassi Pueblo is one of my favourite leathers to work with. Its distinctive matte finish gives it plenty of character from the start, and with regular use it gradually becomes smoother, darker and richer in colour, developing a patina that's unique to the way you use it.

Whether it's protecting your sunglasses on the move or your reading glasses at home, this sleeve is made to be used every day and to improve with age.

Why Badalassi Pueblo?

Badalassi Pueblo is produced by the Badalassi Carlo tannery in Tuscany using traditional vegetable tanning methods. It's known for its distinctive rustic appearance and lightly buffed matte finish, which gradually transforms through everyday use.

As the leather is handled, the surface burnishes naturally, the colour deepens and the leather develops a rich patina that's unique to you. Small marks become part of its story, giving the sleeve more character rather than making it look worn.

Handmade from Start to Finish

Every sunglasses sleeve is made by hand in my Norfolk workshop. I cut each piece of leather, stitch it by hand, burnish the edges and finish every sleeve individually before it's ready to leave the workshop.

Because leather is a natural material, no two sleeves are ever exactly the same. Each one has its own grain, markings and character, making every piece unique.

Looking After Your Sleeve

To keep your sleeve looking its best, avoid prolonged exposure to water and wipe it clean with a soft, dry cloth when needed. If the leather begins to look dry after years of use, applying a small amount of quality leather conditioner will help keep it supple.

A Thoughtful Handmade Gift

Whether you're buying it for yourself or as a gift, this sunglasses sleeve is designed to be used every day for years to come. Handmade from exceptional Italian leather and stitched by hand, it's a simple, practical accessory that only becomes better with age.

Please Note

Full grain leather is a natural material, so every sunglasses sleeve will have its own grain pattern, markings and slight colour variations. These are not imperfections but part of the character of the leather, making every sleeve completely unique.
