As a young boy, Harold learned the basics of his craft from his Grandfather, a master in his own right. Harold's lifelong hobby served him quite well upon discovering Faires and joining the SCA, when he began creating leather armor and accessories for himself, family members, and friends. Having enjoyed several years as an SCA heavy weapons fighter, he applies his experience on the field to armor designs which provide both full range of motion and comfort.

Susan has diversified from her seamstress and quilting activities, to become a most capable and creative leather apprentice. She divides her time between our shop, packing and shipping, and handling a multitude of administrative tasks.

Together, we share a lifelong love of things Medieval, and participation in countless faires, tourneys, and revels.

We established The Inner Bailey not as a hobby or a sideline, but as a full-time endeavor committed to offering you an ever-growing selection of high quality, affordable, and exceptionally well-made leather goods.

We don't believe in cutting corners ~ all our leathers are premium grade, tannery-dyed in the USA. We carefully hand-craft all our products ~ we pay close attention to detail, and we invest our time and our integrity into every item we create.

Our goal is to provide our customers with a unique blend of both classic and original designs across a range of categories, from the historically accurate to the fantasy-inspired.

Here at The Inner Bailey, there are always new designs in the works ~ some are rough sketches pinned up on the shop wall, some are notes on the backs of errant envelopes, and still others are completed products in the process of being tested ~ so please bookmark us and visit again soon!
