Durable in the elements, warm to the touch, and grippier when wet, our natural leather is a performance material with a clean look and outstanding handfeel for bicycle bar wraps.
Like our other easy to sew on products, the Sew-on Bar Wraps come as a kit that you stitch on yourself with pre-punched stitching holes, needle, thread, and instructions.
The natural oils in your hands burnish our high-quality American leather into a glossy patina that will last you a lifetime. You get to keep the patina you've earned: you can transfer it from bike to bike, and over the years it will only get more beautiful with use and time.
Fits drop bars, pursuit bars, bullhorns, or any other 1” (25.4mm) diameter bars.

I could not be happier with my sew on leather bar wraps. They arrived in a very timely manner with everything that I needed to do the installation, wraps, thread, needle and the most important thing for me as a non-sewing person, easy to follow instructions. I'm not including a close up picture, but that's not an indictment of this product but more of a comment on my sewing. Bottom line, I'm extremely happy. Matches my Brooks saddle very well. Again, could not be happier with the entire experience.
I love my new handlebar wraps. Great quality and beautiful. Easy to install after I figured out my “system”. Only suggestion for improvement is I found that a lot of the links provided for instruction were dead. The overarching video worked, but none of the other ones. Some more detailed guidance on best technique for attaching the wraps would be helpful. I figured out and approach through trial and error, but given you will likely only attach the covers irregularly there isn’t much time to learn through trial and error.
We've double-checked the links and made sure they're working fine. Thank you for the constructive feedback.
Perfekt wie beschrieben mit einer tollen Anleitung für die Montage.

This is my 4th vintage bicycle that I equipped with this handle bar leather wrap. I was very satisfied with this product and been using it on all my vintage bike Collection. I Love it. All my BIKEs now looks good and clean. As far as the functionality, I can tell you its better than any other wrap out there and its also very durable, if you take Care of it you will never Change wrap for a very long long time. I a.m very satisfied with this product. If theres a 10 stars I Will definitely give it to this product.
The leather was high quality and the color I chose from the available options is absolutely beautiful! This was a custom item they didn't have on their site but I knew from seeing other items they had crafted this would be perfect for me. I hope other trombone players can get the same item for their horns. The item is a leather neck guard to protect the horn lacquer from skin oil. And it looks really sharp and gives the horn a custom look!
The wraps were better than expected. The leather is high quality and the instructions were clear and helpful. The wraps look amazing when finished ! Some logo bar ends would probably put this over the top on looks !

There's many different brands, styles, materials and colors of handlebar tape, I found the KEEPER. I chose leather due to its life expectancy, and re-wrap potential. You'll have to judge for yourself but for me leather is the only wrap that will transfer between bars multiple times without compromising structure. Walnut Studiolo supplied a quality product, instructions, a sweet treat, games, green wrapping, leather classes if wanted and friendly communication. If you go this route, expect a charge commensurate with a lasting leather product that gives a certain classic look and old school feel.
I have been wanting to get a set of sew on wraps for my handlebars for quite some time now. I am so glad that I finally did, and from such a wonderful company. Their attention to detail and passion for quality sets them apart. I love that they are not only providing a high quality product, but distributing it in such an environmentally responsible manner. The handwritten note was like the cherry on top, along with the piece of chocolate they slipped into the all post consumer recycled packaging.
Here are my 'bars, I soaked the black wraps overnight and used a whip stitch to sew them on.
Prompt shipping and sent a replacement very quickly when a stitch ripped during install. The wraps look great!
I was worried about sewing these on myself, but once I started going it was quick and easy -- far easier than I expected. I finished up my bullhorns in about an hour, plus some time later to trim and fit the ends. They look *amazing* and feel great. They're a little thin, but the bike they're on is my around-town bike; if I was going to use them on a longer-range bike I'd want to put some sort of padding underneath, but I think you could do that without too much trouble.
Amazing leather wraps. I've purchased these before for a different boy or and had to get them again. Simply beautiful. They can be a bit tricky to put on, but with patience and the helpful directions provided and online videos it's really made easy. I'll purchase again, again and again.

These handle bar grips are stunning. They were simple to sew on and they look fantastic. Also, they're comfortable even for long rides. I will definitely keep purchasing from this store and recommend to all of my cycle enthusiasts. Thanks!!

Great communication w/seller! The leather is high quality and seller included info on how to sew it on.
I think I specified the wrong product and when I requested an exchange for the correct item the exchange was handled expeditiouly and cordially. The product is well made and I like the personal touches in the packaging and communication.
Geoff, Val, and my sew-on leather wraps ROCK!! No other way to put it.

Few changes I could make a classic Bianchi look better.
Although product is high quality and shipping was prompt, it is not well thought out. It is sold as a universal product when it is meant for a plain bar. It is too narrow to wrap around the bar AND brake cable leaving an ugly gap. Im sure its operator error but I soaked the leather in water before I started and kept it damp while I worked but I couldn't stretch it enough to cover the brake cable. Stitching holes looked stretched and i was worried they would tear if i went went tighter.
really - thanks!
Nice, but I wish they were cut to curve around the bar so that they don't form large wrinkles. These strips are in one long straight piece. They don't curve.

Fast shipping and absolutely beautiful. This was a gift and they absolutely loved it!
