About

MAD & DARLING acknowledge the Traditional Custodians of the land that we work on, the Boon Wurrung People. We pay respect to their Elders, past, present & emerging.

MAD & DARLING offer like minded folk handcrafted, contemporary and bespoke accessories. 

MAD & DARLING's leather products combine raw vegetable tanned leather, with a penchant for minimalist lines, bold colour and pattern. The Winter 2021 MAD & DARLING leather line introduced a new, high quality range of pet accessories, incorporating contemporary design and leather craftsmanship.
