Most products today are made to be replaced, not repaired. It’s frustrating to invest in something only to have it fall apart just as you’re starting to like it. You shouldn’t have to settle for "disposable."

At Ninth Market, I believe the things you carry should be as resilient as the life you lead.

Why I Craft: I’m Desmond, and I’ve always found a sense of purpose in working with my hands. I chose leather as my medium because of its unique ability to grow stronger and more beautiful with age. I don't just see raw materials; I see the potential for an enduring companion.

My Promise to You: When you choose a piece from Ninth Market, you aren't just buying a product; you’re investing in a legacy.

1. Hand-Selected Materials: Only the highest-grade leather makes the cut.

2. Purposeful Craftsmanship: Every stitch is placed with the intent to last decades, not months.

3. A Lifetime Companion: Your item will develop a patina that tells the story of your own journey.

Stop settling for temporary fixes. Instead, carry something that stands the test of time and reflects the character of the person holding it.
