legends are forged over time
Dragonfly is the culmination of craftsmen passing their skills and values from one generation to the next, building over time. You could say it really started with their parents - or maybe their father’s fathers - who passed down American values like loyalty and dedication, hard work and high quality. Those things aren’t given, they’re earned.
Today, those values are reflected in every Dragonfly product. Handmade in America, a Dragonfly Apron is designed to work as hard as you and stand the test of time.

"A custom leather apron is a tool you will use on every project." Patrick Melchior.
The most-used tool in your shop. Designed for any shop use, our Master Custom Workshop Apron is based on our Apprentice Workshop apron's legendary quality but with upgraded leather and hardware for even greater durability. And then, we add one-of-a-kind customization.
Each work apron includes a video fitting where our expert designers work with you one-on-one, tool by tool, to create a masterpiece that fits you perfectly.
Each work apron is individually crafted for the client; no two aprons are alike. We ensure the Master Custom Workplace Apron fits you perfectly, considering your needs and measurements. The custom design of the apron is yours. You decide which tools you want to keep close. We help with the tool placement and can provide insight into what works best for you.
NEW: Store your apron in style! Your custom apron will come with a newly designed, specially crafted, personalized hardwood hanger with a quarter-inch, solid-brass hook made by Patrick.

Designed precisely for your body, each Dragonfly Master Custom apron is 100% made-to-order and sized using our proprietary 8-Way Live Custom Fitting Process. We start by mailing you a canvas sizing template that you wear during the video fitting. We’ll walk you through each sizing point to ensure a truly perfect “made just for you” fit.
Our fitting process is designed to make sure our aprons fit and work as well as you do, including taking into account:
Arm Movements
Leather is sized and cut for maximum flexibility and free movement as you work.
Tool Reach
Along with pocket placements, we allow room for short arm movements to easily grab hold of on-apron tools.
Bending and Kneeling
Sized and cut to minimize bunching during body movements.
***The lead time is 8 to 10 weeks AFTER the canvas template is received, depending on the leather in stock. Some photos may include upgrades.
*****Please note: To avoid additional costs, we recommend beginning the customization process within three months of receiving your Apron Template Information Package. After this period, any changes in pricing since the original purchase will apply. Should you choose not to proceed within this timeframe, we can offer a store credit for future purchases. Thank you for understanding our need to adjust for the rising cost of materials over time.****
