Beorma Leather Company is a British brand rooted in a lifelong passion for leather and a deep connection to the heritage of Walsall, England. The story begins with Alex Simpson, the founder, who crafted his first leather bag at the age of 13. After a 15-year career in bomb disposal, working in some of the most remarkable places around the world, Alex returned home in May 2022, ready for a new chapter. The imminent arrival of his first child, Jake, marked a pivotal moment, prompting him to pursue his long-held dream of creating unique, enduring leather goods.
Within just two weeks of returning, Alex set up a small workshop and began bringing his vision to life. His journey took a decisive turn during a sleepless night, when he learned of the closure of a four-generation-old company in Walsall—a town renowned for its leatherwork since the 16th century. The news stirred a profound sense of loss, as Alex had grown up visiting the leather museum in Walsall and was inspired by the skill and tradition on display. Faced with the risk of losing this legacy, he resolved to create Beorma as a way to preserve the craft and support the talented artisans whose livelihoods were at risk.
Beorma is more than a brand; it is a testament to resilience, a celebration of heritage, and a dedication to the artisans who breathe life into leather. The company is committed to keeping the legacy of Walsall’s leather craft alive, sharing its passion, craftsmanship, and values with customers. Every piece created by Beorma is a story waiting to be told, embodying generations of dedication and love for the art of leather.
Beorma’s products are fine leather goods, handmade in England, expertly crafted in the UK’s historic leather quarter. The brand offers secure shopping with all major cards and digital payments accepted, complimentary worldwide shipping, repairs, and returns, and dedicated customer care.
