CHUNKY ZIP CUFF

Finally, after hours and hours of prototyping, my KIMSHU leather chunky zip cuff is completed! I am very content with the end result :) After comparing the two cuffs, I prefer the chunkier zip because it draws more attention. These cuffs are definitely unisex and they're quite versatile. If you're an all dressed-black person like myself, all you need is this cuff to complete your whole outfit (in my opinion). Keep it simple!
Which do you prefer? Your thoughts?

ZIP CUFFS

Handmade leather zip cuffs

Hi everyone! Hope you're all doing well! Sorry I haven't posted in a while due to work and lack of motivation. It's been quite a stressful month for me but on the bright side I managed to invest in a industrial sewing machine (cylinder arm machine to be exact) which was extremely hard to find, one that's affordable and in decent condition. So I've been keeping myself occupied along with some new designs and slowly expanding my skills. At the moment my new project is designing cuffs, the pictures below is my first attempt which I'm quite satisfied with although some adjustments still need to be implemented. My initial idea was to use a big chunky hardware zip but I honestly don't mind the smaller zip. Once again, I like my designs to be black, bold and simple with a nice piece of hardware to add a statement. Overall, I'm broke as from spending a great amount of money on materials but ultimately I'm very pleased with the outcome.
I'll be sure to keep you guys posted with my upcoming designs :)
