Leather bicycle by Jacques Ferrand

jacques-ferrand-leather-bike-08

Jacques Ferrand is a trained leather cutter and sewer in Paris who recently completed a project where he covered an entire track bike with leather. Just about every single part of the frame is surrounded by leather. You can really get a better sense of how detailed he is at his craft by looking at the images below.

Damn, wouldn’t want to ride this in the rain. Actually, wouldn’t want to ride this ever. I would just like to hang this on my wall.
