Our Story
Preserving leather memories in Alaska, one stitch at a time.
Born from a Love of Leather
Poofy Puffin Upholstery Place started in a small garage in Kenai, fueled by a passion for restoring worn leather goods. What began as a hobby—fixing friends' battered jackets and resoleing favorite boots—quickly turned into a full-fledged mission to save Alaska's leather treasures.
We noticed that in our harsh climate, leather items take a beating. Salt, snow, sun, and wear tear them down But. we believed that with the right care, these items could last a lifetime. That's still our promise to you today.
