About

Wylie's Wood & Leather, founded by artisan Justin Comins, is a Los Angeles-based brand dedicated to crafting unique, handcrafted wood and leather goods. Inspired by his late canine companion, Wylie, Justin channels a timeless spirit into each creation, emphasizing classic, minimalistic designs that exude warmth and reliability. With a background in television and film production, Justin's transition to woodworking and leatherwork reflects his passion for tangible craftsmanship and self-reliance.

Central to Wylie's Wood & Leather's mission is a commitment to full-circle sustainability and building meaningful relationships. The brand prioritizes the use of sustainably sourced materials, ensuring that each product not only tells a story but also leaves a positive, lasting impression. In his custom designs, Justin uses recycled wood from old furniture, retired structures, and even sources fallen trees in the forest to build his pieces.

By embracing ethical practices and fostering a connection between creator and consumer, Wylie's Wood & Leather aims to inspire a deeper appreciation for handcrafted artistry and environmental responsibility.

Founding Story

Wylie’s Wood and Leather was born out of Justin Comins’ passion for craftsmanship and sustainable artistry. Working from his shop in Santa Monica, Justin merges vintage Americana inspiration with a modern dedication to sustainability. Each handcrafted piece, whether a leather good or wooden treasure, tells its own story, blending timeless design with the uniqueness of sustainably sourced materials. For Justin, it’s about creating functional art that adds warmth and character to any space, from custom furniture to everyday accessories.

After a 20-year career in TV and media, Justin sought a more hands-on, creative outlet that would align with his values and fuel his artistic spirit. Transitioning to woodworking and leather crafting gave him the opportunity to turn his lifelong appreciation for design into tangible works of art. The shift marked a new chapter—one rooted in creating enduring, meaningful pieces that connect people to the beauty of nature and the power of artisanal craftsmanship.

Guided by an ethos of individuality, Wylie’s creations ensure no two items are alike. The brand reflects Justin’s meticulous attention to detail and his love for meaningful, purposeful design. Customers are drawn to the heart behind every product, knowing each is made with care, intention, and a respect for nature. Justin’s dedication transforms ordinary materials into heirloom-quality pieces, making Wylie’s Wood and Leather a standout in the world of artisan goods.

The Man Behind the Dog

Owner Justin Comins has always had a knack for fixing things. During his 20-year career in television, commercial, and film production, he took on a side project to restore a classic 1970 Honda motorcycle from the ground up. The experience reignited his passion for crafting and sparked a realization: it was time to move on from television and follow his calling to create.

The moment he first explored woodworking and leatherwork, he felt like he’d found his true purpose in life.

With the unwavering support of his wife and two daughters, and the memory of his beloved dog Wylie close at heart, Justin began crafting products that tell the story of who he is as a person: down to earth, charismatic, and passionate.

For Justin, Wylie’s Wood & Leather is not just about the products themselves (although there’s nothing more fun than getting on the lathe and turning a bowl); it’s about full-circle sustainability, building relationships, choosing self-reliance, and, most importantly, leaving a life-long impression.
