leather quiver

Steve Catts makes nice looking quivers. Check the web, you should find plenty of fine crafters.

Les at Aardvark Archery makes bespoke leather quivers. You can pretty much have what design you want on it, at a price I'm sure. He made on for me last year which was plain brown with a square side pocket for less than a hundred quid, when I explained what I wanted he seemed a little surprised that I didn't want any tooling on it or anything. I'm a less is more kinda guy!

I have a leather and suede Paullet quiver, which I can't recommend highly enough.

Les' Quivers have been very popular with GB archers over the years. He makes specials Red white and Blue quivers for GB archers only.

Im lucky to have found one of his in Ebay. Picked it up for £50. I know his quivers have been knwon to go for nearly £200 but they are so worth it. Give les a call and see what he can do for ya.

Lez's quivers are amazing

The stardard that he makes them too, you have to see one to beleive it.
But you will have to wait for it, With running his shop these days, it does not leave him with much time for leather work.

There are a few other leatherworkers that have learned some skills from lez regarding making quivers ( dont know who though )

I still plan on getting one for my 30th,( hints to the girlfriend )

Sometimes he has one or two for sale at the shop ( second hand ), may be worth a call to see if anything is available which may suit you....

How do you know he's sexy Leigh, you've only talked to him over the phone. OK I suppose if you go for the macho, muscular, bald headed look. He's just bought a Harley and started to grow a beard and pony tail, thankfully he's now seen the error of his ways and shaved it off.

And yes his leather work is top class, I have one of his quivers and it's one piece of kit I wont be changing!
