I found it at C.W. Moose. I loved the shop, the owner, the service, even the price! I really loved it so much that ordered some more on line. And I have to tell you a few calls to the shop were just as great as being there. You feel when someone goes out of the way to make your day better and just to make you happy. Thanks, C.W. Moose, love you and wish your shop and all of Black Mountain quick recovery. Hope to come back in 2025

I had my genuine Louis Vuitton zipper replaced by Ayers along with some other repairs (ie tab at…read moreend of bag repaired so I can use bag as a crossbody bag again). The repair is horrendous. It is not straight which causes the zipper to ripple. Also, the vinyl was damaged during zipper replacement. My bag came back looking like a knock off. I am honestly wondering if it is my original bag as mine has so much damage and curiously, this resale shoe suddenly has my exact same bag on the shelf. Note my bag was not in bad condition...just needed a zipper and end tab for crossbody carrying. I intend to ask for a refund and send my bag to Louis Vuitton for it to be corrected after this aweful experience. Small claims court may be necessary.

I was in need of a new black belt. The gentleman that assisted me was very helpful. After looking over the extensive selection I was measured, paid and we were on our way. I was told to expect the belt in the mail in 6-8 weeks. Sure enough, in about 6 weeks the belt showed up. I am more than pleased- it is the best belt I have in my closet. Beautiful workmanship and the quality of leather is absolutely outstanding. I have tried to find a brown belt locally, but nothing compares. I'm ordering the brown version of the belt I got today. Highly recommend!

Harness is still widely used because the land here is steep and rugged, making horses preferred over tractors for many farming tasks. This safer, more practical way of working, prospered our downtown harness business. Harness makers performed their historical craft publicly with turn of the century tools in the early American tradition. In this same way, a crowd gathered in interest to view production in our unique and unusual shop. Then one day a man asked if a heavy belt could be cut from thick bridle leather for himself. He told us of his thin combined belt splitting apart, cracking, tearing at the holes and cheap hardware peeling and breaking, lasting only a year or so. We obliged him and produced a few to sell. Everyone that saw our belts told us that they had been looking for a good quality belt for a long time. Our belts sold fast and became so popular that Blue Ridge Mountain Belt Company was born. Our belts are different and they're not just good for horses. We use only the best American grown and tanned bridle leather fashioned with solid brass hardware. They are hand crafted by Leathersmiths on Grandfather Mountain in North Carolina. You also will be pleased with your choice and will enjoy our quality belts for years to come. Ya'll come visit!
