01 · MADE BY HAND
Mixed and poured in Albuquerque.
Every batch is small. We make it in the back of the shop and put it on the shelf up front.
NOW OPEN · 8019 MENAUL BLVD NE, SUITE C
And now you can, in person. Our first store is open in Albuquerque, stocked with handmade skincare, candles, and fragrance.
OPENING DAY · 10/10
You packed the shop on opening day. Thank you to everyone who came out, wore leather, and shopped small. The store is open now, and the whole LeatherDaddy line is on the shelves for you to smell before you buy.
SMALL BUSINESS · MADE BY HAND
Everything on our shelves is made in small batches in this same building. I've mixed the oils, poured the candles, designed the labels, and packed the orders myself since day one.
This store is how LeatherDaddy grows. It already let me hire my first two employees, and it means we can make more and ship faster. When you shop here, you're keeping a queer-owned Albuquerque business open.
A NOTE FROM THE FOUNDER
SKINCARE WITH A KINK
In 2020 the pandemic took my restaurant job overnight. Almost 15 years of waiting tables, gone. At the same time, the places our community gathers went dark. Pride got canceled and the leather bars closed.
With my husband in my corner, I started making skincare by hand in a 12x12 room. I taught myself all of it: formulating, labels, photography, the website, shipping. I wanted products that smelled like Leather, Scotch, Vanilla, and 18 Erotic Spices and came from inside our community.
Since then I've made over 100,000 products myself and shipped them worldwide, and LeatherDaddy is now sold in more than 60 stores across the US. Now Albuquerque has its own LeatherDaddy store. It happened because you kept ordering. Thank you. Come see it and say hi.
