Starting Small
Humble Beginnings
Ben decided to make himself a belt in 2005, and that first one seemed to turn out very well, so with that, a new love affair began.
After a year and a half of making firmer vegetable tanned leather belts for his clothing label 'El Cato', he decided to give into the requests of customers and friends to make some softer womens belts. That was late 2006, and Charlie Middleton was born.
Jump forward to now and the range consists of hundreds of products, and thousands of options, yet every item is still lovingly handmade in the Sydney workshop.

Previously bought designer hand bags from US. Until I bought my first Charle Middleton. I love my black Nappa Billie Shoulder Bag with the striking lining I selected. It is well made, luxurious and so cool. Best of all it’s made in Australia. It’s my every day bag now.
Thank you for my beautiful bag. I am very happy with my purchase. It is chic and practical, lovely quality, and goes with everything. Exactly what I wanted.
It's beautiful, I know she will love it. I have it hidden! I can't wait.
My cedar coloured odette purse is happily snapped inside my mini tote(black Napa with tan handles)
The Black Nappa Bespoke Tote is divine. Beautiful design, impeccable workmanship. I was torn between the full size and the mini, but the full size is perfect for the everyday needs of a Professional/Mum. I will be purchasing from Charlie Middleton again. Thanks Ben!

I am very impressed with my bag. I love that I’ve brought something so well made, that was made in Australia. It was great to have the option of choosing my interior fabric and the colour of the metal zipper and other metal joiners on my bag. It has the look of high quality.
Amazing service and sensational leather craft, filling my home with that new leather smell 🥰
