D-BAT Lee's Summit × Leatherius Woodman – a leather stamping study

From the Practice Log – an ongoing series of stamping studies on real-world marks.

An August study.

For D-BAT Lee's Summit.

The D-BAT mark pressed as it comes, flames and crossed bats intact, on a trio of tags for gear that spends its season between the cage and Saturday's diamond. Navy for the wordmark's outline, deep green for the infield behind it. The black tag carries the gold.

Four strokes, and the fifth – the one that crosses them – is a bat. Reps are how a swing gets built, so the tally rides a pair of fobs in bat-wood tan and field green, then keeps count from the corner of a navy-over-espresso dopp kit.

Home plate in the base of a golden-tan catchall tray, SAFE across its middle – the pockets empty at day's end and everything touches home.

A scorekeeper darkens the diamond when the run comes home. That notation sits pressed in the corner of one navy cover and one chalk-pale one – the pages are for what it took.

We made this out of love. Leatherius Woodman is on a mission to create and share artifacts of beauty, craft and love – this study is one of them, and we hope the feeling is mutual. Every image is a render – how we prototype before cutting a die.
