“It’s about far more than just quality leather products, it’s a passionate creation”

Defined as being of outstanding strength and vigour, the name Stalwart encapsulates everything I wanted to create with my range of designer aprons and accessories.

Not for you to simply look the part, but for you to have a trusted ‘stalwart’ which will become your go-to wearable aid for years and years to come.

My name is Tim De Ket, and I now run this business having taken over the craft from my Father, who began the business way back in 1997.

I’ve grown up surrounded by and immersed in the world of aprons for as long as I can remember! In fact, the whole family lived and breathed aprons, having them stored at home in the garage, the loft, the dining room – even the lounge – at times.

A Message from Our Founder

Every great story has a humble beginning, and ours began with aprons. Growing up, I spent countless hours in my father’s workshop—originally our family garage—printing labels on aprons. Despite the many designs that passed through my hands, one thing always stood out: the lack of creativity and uniqueness. They all seemed to blend together, with only the occasional variation in color.

One day, as I held yet another ordinary apron, I knew I could do better. I envisioned creating a brand of aprons that were not only functional but also stylish, made from the finest fair-trade materials to ensure they would be cherished and last a lifetime.

My journey led me to discover leather—a material that captured everything I was looking for: soft yet rugged, timeless in its appeal, and incredibly durable. After three years of honing my leathercrafting skills and partnering with a local tanneries to source the highest quality materials, Stalwart Crafts was born.

Today, I am proud to present a diverse collection of premium aprons, menu covers, and accessories that have made their way to clients around the world. At Stalwart Crafts, we are passionate about continuing this journey—innovating and designing pieces that aren’t just worn but celebrated.

My vision remains steadfast: to create products that are loved, cherished, and spoken of for years to come.
