The finest handcrafted camel leather goods.
100% handmade in Washington DC. Ethically-sourced, chemical-free. Our leather is ethically-sourced and chemical-free.

KAMEL is the first leather goods brand in North America to work exclusively with camel leather. It was built around a pursuit to handcraft leather goods that are unique, high quality, beautiful, and made with responsibly-sourced materials. It is tanned with a chrome-free process. Up to 80% of the water from this process is recycled and the waste is composted.

“Not only was I blown away by holding ballpoint pen and Moleskine sketchbook in my hands & paging through his art, the leather cover it was in was beautiful. So I decided to indulge & order my own pocket Moleskine camel leather Cover handmade by .kamel.
🙏 Thanks KAMEL! You created a beautiful object that will elevate my sketching experience. 😍”

I sincerely thank all of you who are following my creative pursuit, .kamel. Thank you for the encouragement and support. I am humbled to be able to share what I create. I consider myself a maker and craftsperson, not a marketer. So I’m excited to reach the 2K mark. A small step, yes. But I believe that organic growth is good growth. Thank you for taking part in the process and joining me along the way!
This is a journey for me—from years of traversing deserts in Africa and the Middle East where I first encountered camels, to delving deeply into learning the details of leathercraft, and proudly using ethically-sourced camel leather that is sustainably tanned.

Ok, the giveaway details! 🙂
The winner of the giveaway will walk away with a fully lined camel leather Moleskine notebook cover. I completely handcraft each one without machines (not even a sewing machine). It’s the hottest item in my shop at the moment, so it might as well be the prize, too.
