NOVEMBER EXHIBITION: NORMAN PORTER COMPANY
A LOOK INTO THE PROCESS OF CONSTRUCTING SELVAGE DENIM JEANS AND LEATHER WORK BY MICHAEL STAMPLER, DAVID STAMPLER, AND JOHN MAHAFFEY
Named after Michael and David’s grandfather, a mechanical engineer from Perkasie, Norman Porter Company is a denim, canvas, and leather goods company operating out of Fishtown, Philadelphia, PA.
Norman Porter produces small batch goods, crafted by hand in house. All Norman Porter jeans are made with the finest quality denims, and each rivet is hand hammered. Th eir leather products are also hand tooled and one of a kind. They embrace the strange and wacky, o ffering general staples, while making each piece just a little bit diff erent.
