River Ridge Leather
You’ve taken the Living History Tour and had lunch at the Warehouse Steak n’ Stein. Your wife has posed for some great Facebook photos under the Whitewoman Street sign and disappeared through the Garden Gate.
Now it’s time to send the kids for hand-dipped ice cream at Captain Nye’s and slip away to every man’s favorite shop in Roscoe Village.
Of all the shops and exhibits in Roscoe Village, River Ridge Leather Company is the most faithful to the history and heritage of our 19th-century canal-era town.
And the shop is operated not by actors, but genuine craftsmen working every day to produce authentic goods with traditional methods.
Dennis Knight and his journeyman apprentices man the shop daily from April 1st through Labor Day.
And no tour ticket is required to visit this authentic canal-era attraction.
Using only traditional hand tools and traditional leatherworking methods, River Ridge Leather Company
produces extraordinary one-of-a-kind leather goods made entirely on the premises.
You can find River Ridge Leather Company in the original James LeRitilley building next to Uncorked on Whitewoman Street. It is truly the best place in Roscoe Village to watch a master craftsman at work in his labor of love.
It’s also the best place to ask what happened to the Inn and the hardware store.
