BIO

Kristen Allen’s years traveling around chasing her cowboy dreams have been the greatest influence on her art. She’s been drawing and loving horses since she was a kid, and leather work has given her a medium to showcase what she’s been lucky enough to experience while clocking the miles in the saddle. Allen has a deep love and appreciation for nature, landscapes, wild cattle, and tough horses. Most of all, she loves representing her fellow cowboy girls with her own “twist” to traditional floral and figure carving, hence her brand name.

Allen strives to create leather goods that can hold up to a day’s work but look pretty too. She specializes in tooled belts but offers a variety of items in her monthly shop updates.
