Waltzing Matilda USA

Waltzing Matilda USA Waltzing Matilda USA specializes in handcrafted sandals and other leather goods made in the USA from locally sourced & re-purposed materials.

Waltzing Matilda USA is a brand founded in Pennsylvania which specializes in handcrafted leather bags, sandals and accessories. The company was started unofficially from the back of a VW van with a hammer, a knife and scrap leather. The first Waltzing Matilda USA product ever created was re-purposed from a piece of shoe leather and turned into a sandal. One sandal led to another. The sandals were

manufactured during the night so that they could be hand delivered to specialty shops along the East Coast during the day. The passion for creating pieces of art from leather progressed to a bag. Beer was traded for scrap leather from the Red Wing Shoe Factory in Minnesota, and these scraps were turned into a bag that received much attention through social media. As a result, many bags were commissioned, and Waltzing Matilda USA was officially born. The inspiration for the company's name stems from one of the founder's childhood memories. He and his father spent many nights listening to the song, “Waltzing Matilda” by Tom Waits. The beautiful melody mixed with Waits' gruff, whiskey-soaked voice led to a piece of art, just as the process of taking old scraps led to the creation of a unique, story-telling piece of WM USA product. The brand is currently distributed through high-end specialty stores in the US and Japan, through the website and the shop in Wayne, PA. Everything is handcrafted in the USA and made to last forever. Every effort is made to use recycled materials found during the company’s travels. Waltzing Matilda USA does not compromise. The company is creative, adventurous and humble, and sincerely wants to stimulate the senses with its pieces. Every hide is handpicked with unique features and marks that add character and beauty to each product. Waltzing Matilda USA hopes you love your new piece of art and that it travels with you for a lifetime.

I have been a little quiet for the last few months, for that I apologize. But in April, I had a cancer diagnosis. After I got through the fear, met with doctors, had all the test, I found out it is curable, but the cure can be rough. Completed radiation and Chemo, now just doing chemo trying to shrink that tumor before surgery..rectal cancer is not of the weak…but in turning things back around now…our new Waltzing Matilda in Color tote bags are on sale. You save $20 and we donate $20 to our local cancer center, Lafayette Cancer Center in Brewer, Maine that has been taking great care of me. They are an affiliate of Dana Farber in Boston, so I have been to Boston for second opinions and will have my surgery in Boston if needed. So look at these gorgeous bags, buy one and save some money for yourself and we will make a donation to help cure more people. Cancer sucks, but we can overcome with supporting our cancer center…check these beautiful bags out, leather exterior and leather lining…double the leather...https://www.waltzingmatilda-usa.com/shop-2
