Dustin Loftis, the man behind The Dusty Hide Leather Co. in Weatherford, Oklahoma, got his start in the leather business nearly a decade ago. One of his rodeo friends built him a belt and let him draw the tooling pattern for it. Dustin was intrigued about the belt-making process, so his rodeo pal explained the basics to him. “I gave it a try myself and was hooked,” he remembered.
Since then, Dustin has endeavored to learn as much as he can about the art of leathercraft. He’s been able to spend a couple days with Texas leathercrafter Britt Nantz, but seeks advice from Travis Stillson, accomplished leathercrafter and silversmith, often. “I definitely admire Travis’ work. His craftsmanship is amazing!” Dustin said. There is a long list of folks Dustin would love to work with in the industry, he’s just got to find some time do so.
