Update: Thank you Tandy Leather Reno and Kassandra!! My daughter finished her horse bridle with Kassandra's guidance and help. We reserved some one in one time with Kassandra for this project. This store has made crafting with leather so much fun! They have excellent classes to teach how to use the tools to create wonderful fun and useful things with leather. Service is excellent. Kassandra is a wonderful instructor. She is knowledgeable, creative, and patient. We did a one on one lesson with her today. My daughter, 9 yo, wanted to make an English horse bridle, and Kassandra guided her to design and create her own customs bridle that will fit her pony. While I was waiting, Kassandra guided me to make a bat/dragon key fob! Thanks so much!!Kassandra provides great value! The lesson is free/inclusive in the price of the materials purchased to make the project.

What a good find!!Came next door to 999 Pho for lunch, see other Yelp, and decided to walk off our lunch before doing our other chores.Quality/Quantity - Huge selection. Brings back memories of my custom/tailored leather jacket back in the day. Too bad they do not do repairs here, but had plenty of referrals on their community board. My daughter now wears my jacket, but she wants me to redo the inside liner.I also have been buying some nice leather belts at fairs, etc. Good to see a selection here. Most importantly, I only use brass buckles, and there is a very decent selection here.When I get more free time, I might pick up this hobby...? Leather crafts...? Leather kits...? Etc.Atmosphere - Huge location with a good selection.Restrooms are outside in the mall.Open 6 days a week from 9am to 5pm, closed Sundays. Yelp hours differ slightly. See picture or website.Service - They have leather classes here also, see picture or website. The classes seem very inexpensive!The team was okay, not super friendly or rude. But it might have been obvious that we were browsing. Like a kid in a candy store that is not allowed to have any...Price - Seemed reasonable.Owner Comment - Congrats on your success since 1919 with your 108+ worldwide locations. We will be back!

We had so much fun at Tandy Leather in Reno NV. We recommend the classes at this location. The staff and service are excellent; they were knowledgeable and friendly. My daughter wanted to learn how to make a horse bridle for her horse. We attended the demonstration classes for making straps. She learned how to cut strips from leather and install buckles and straps. She had so much fun and finished the class with a dog collar for our husky and braided belt for herself. The demo classes are free and we paid only for the additional parts we used for our projects. No pressure to buy, and so much opportunity to make something from the large selection of supplies. We will come back for a one on one to make the horse bridle. Thanks so much!!! There are also holiday crafts like Bat Fob and Mask Making that we will come back for. Kassandra was our instructor and she was super with my daughter. Thanks so much!!

I inherited a couple belt buckles. I am very new to the leather game. I went into the store to buy a belt. I left with two belts, the dye I needed for the color I was looking for, and some conditioner for the long life of the leather. The customer service I have from the two employees helping me, was excellent. All my questions were answered. This will be the only place I buy my leather. thank you to the staff again.

This is the nicest Tandy store I have ever seen. Very well stocked and very friendly employees. I found items in this store that I never seen in any Tandy Leather store. Highly recommend that you visit them if you need anything to do with leather work.

I got turned away for not wearing a mask. Guess I’ll have to order what I need off of Amazon. Too bad. I’d much rather support a smaller local business.

This place is amazing! Who knew (I certainly didn't) that there's a ton...a TON of materials and tools going in at this amazing location. Here's how it went down for me. I'm a wood worker of sorts. I'm just now getting into the finer craft of hand work, i.e. chisels and hand planers etc. I knew I needed a leather product to put on the extra super-sharp edge for my tools. I rolled in and instead if acting like I know everything, I simply asked for assistance. The woman working there (owner I presume--based on the solid customer support and product knowledge) didn't hesitate one second to discuss tool sharpening (even though her reference point was leather--all information she provided easily carried over). This was a great shop, and an open mind can find plenty of specialized cross-over tools for many projects. I'm really stoked I found this place! Another incredible example of Reno business owners who "get it!"

I asked for help, and I got it. So simple yet so often lacking in so many businesses.
