Elena, the founder and maker of Cross Winds Leather, is based in rural Western Pennsylvania with her small family. After marrying in 2020, Elena and her husband welcomed their first dog, Lebowski, a Miniature Australian Shepherd, followed by Timber less than a year later. As Elena cared for and bonded with her dogs, she realized that the dog gear available on the market didn’t meet her expectations. She longed for more unique and high-quality dog gear. This desire led Elena to begin crafting her own dog gear in their bedroom during a house remodel. Despite the challenges, creating with her hands brought her fulfillment and joy. She then spent a year and a half refining her craft, receiving feedback from family and friends, setting goals both financially and creatively, and learning the in's and out's of starting a small business. In June of 2023, Cross Winds Leather was officially open and ready for business. As Cross Winds Leather continues to grow, Elena invites customers to join her on this exciting journey. She is deeply passionate about crafting high-quality dog gear while maintaining transparency about how her products are made and what materials go into them. Cross Winds (CW) Elijah:
Cross Winds Leather is dedicated to Elena's beloved horse, Eli, who passed in April of 2024. Eli was Elena's greatest friend for over 14 years, and while he is no longer here he plays an integral part of the brand.
