discovered this gem of a store a few months ago and i couldn’t be happier that i did. the staff are incredibly kind and helpful and the shop is always stocked with everything you could possibly need. i highly recommend going here for any leather needs you have.

The staff are amazing. They are always willing to help you out and even will provide advice and suggestions if they are familiar with the work. I have yet to have them try to up sell me. When talking about leather dyes they gave me the pros and cons of each type I was looking at and their honest opinion in then (they had used both). I've never had a bad experience there and I don't foresee having one.
I have shopped a lot at this store, however I will no longer be patronizing Tandy leather store. The price point Tandy sells anything that's not leather at is high, once one does ones research. This is okay for a hobbyist, not if one is in business. Ignorance tax, my father calls it. The negative review mostly Tandy's lackadaisical approach to stocking hardware. An example is not having complete ranges of products in the various finishes, for example rivets, hooks, zippers, buckles in Antiqued brass. Frustrating having to source hardware for a project from multiple locations. The staff are hit or miss. Maybe others have had all positive experiences, I will reserve my judgement.
Being that this is the only leather retail store in Winnipeg, I can't compare it to others, however, I can say the staff is amazing. We walk in and are asked if we need assistance or if we are looking for something specific. I can freely walk around and even have been offered to step behind the counter to take a closer look at the stamping tools. While I'm looking around for what I need, one employee chats with my girlfriend (while working of course) about crocheting and needle point (crafts my gf enjoys). I do find some of the prices out of my range compared to some online options, but at least her I can feel the leather and pick the cut that I want and see any markings that are on it. I'm new to this craft and the employees have made me feel welcome and have been very helpful in picking out new tools, making sure I'm getting things that will help me the most. Would I recommend this store? Definitely. My gf and I always look forward to our visits there. 5 Stars
First time in this store today with my husband and it was amazing! The people there were SO nice, helpful and welcoming even for new people like us who have no idea what we are doing. 100% recommend anyone to this place! Amazing
