One Last Run.
Handmade Until The End.
It comes with a heavy heart to say this, but the time has come for us to close the doors of BaileysBespoke.
What started over a pint between two mates turned into years of crafting by hand, market mornings in the rain, late nights in workshops, and thousands of handmade orders sent all over the world.
From cold evenings in Tristan’s granny’s garage to long nights in Peter’s parents’ attic workshop, we built this brand around one simple belief:
Too much stuff is made not to last.
So we set out to create goods differently. Handmade pieces with character, purpose, and a story behind every stitch.
From Garage Floors To Magazine Covers
There were freezing cold mornings loading market stalls in Horsham. Late nights packing orders surrounded by scraps of leather and empty coffee cups. Countless mistakes. Countless stitches. Countless lessons learned.
And along the way came moments we never expected.
A feature in All About Horsham. Making the front cover of West Sussex County Times. Even a small feature in Cosmopolitan Magazine.
For two mates making products by hand, it all felt pretty surreal. But the proudest part was never the press. It was the messages from customers telling us they still carried the same wallet years later.
That was always the goal.
Why We’re Closing
The reality is, times have changed for small businesses.
Rising material costs, rising operating costs, and increasing challenges across international trade have made it harder and harder to continue sustainably.
Especially within our US market, where tariffs forced us to raise prices far beyond where we ever wanted them to be.
And while this decision hasn’t been easy, we knew we wanted to finish the same way we started:
Honestly. Without compromise. Without cutting corners.
THE FINAL COLLECTION
One Last Run. Handmade Until The End.
Once this final collection is gone, it’s gone forever.
To every customer, friend, family member, market visitor, and supporter over the years:
Thank you.
Thank you for supporting handmade craftsmanship.
Thank you for believing in what we built.
And thank you for allowing two mates to spend the last few years doing something they’ll remember forever.
This may be the end of BaileysBespoke.
But the memories — and the friendship behind it — will last a lifetime.
