About Deri Sitesi

Deri Sitesi is an Istanbul-based leather workshop combining traditional craftsmanship with modern design and production techniques. Since 1994, three generations of experience have shaped our approach to handmade leather hats, vests, accessories and traditional leather goods.

Many of our products are handcrafted in our own workshop in Istanbul and pass through a quality-control process before packaging and shipment.

What We Make

  • Leather Hats: Kalpak, Börk, Ushanka, Papakha and other traditional and modern hat styles
  • Leather Vests: Traditional and contemporary leather vest designs for everyday use
  • Leather Bags & Accessories: Leather bags, bracelets, gloves and other handmade accessories
  • Traditional Leather Goods: Mest footwear, leather armour, archery accessories and special designs

Craftsmanship & Quality

We select materials and production methods according to the intended use of each product, with a focus on durability, comfort and craftsmanship.

  • Handcrafted production in our own Istanbul workshop
  • Quality control before shipment
  • Natural lamb, goat and calf leather depending on the product
  • Natural sheepskin, leather or textile linings depending on the model
  • Custom sizing and made-to-order production available for selected products

Leather and sheepskin are natural materials. Small variations in shade, grain, texture, hair direction or density may occur from one item to another. These natural differences are part of the character of genuine materials.

Custom Sizing & Made-to-Order Products

For selected products, we can produce custom sizes for customers who need measurements outside our standard size range. Head circumference, product height, body measurements and specific design details can be confirmed before production.

Products made specifically according to a customer's measurements or personal requests may be considered custom-made. Return and exchange conditions for custom-made products differ from those for standard products. Please see our Return & Exchange Policy for full details.

International Sales Experience

In addition to serving customers throughout Türkiye, we ship our products to customers in the United States, Europe, Canada and many other countries.

Our experience with international marketplaces, including Etsy, has allowed us to serve thousands of customers around the world and gain extensive experience with international sizing, shipping and customer expectations.

Independent customer feedback from our international sales channels also helps new customers learn more about our products and workmanship before placing an order.

Worldwide Shipping

International orders are shipped primarily with FedEx.

At the customer's request, and where service is available, UPS or DHL may also be used. Any additional shipping cost resulting from a requested alternative carrier is the responsibility of the customer.

Products that are in stock are dispatched on the same business day or the next business day whenever possible. Custom-sized, personalised or made-to-order products require additional production time depending on the product.
