About Leatherman
Leatherman Tool Group is an American multi-tool manufacturer founded in 1983 by Tim Leatherman in Portland, Oregon. Leatherman designed the original PST (Pocket Survival Tool) after a 1975 trip through Europe where a malfunctioning car and leaking hotel plumbing left him wishing for pliers in his pocket. The company received U.S. patent 4,238,862 for the folding-plier design and now produces the Wave+, Skeletool, Charge, and Free series, all manufactured in Portland and backed by a 25-year warranty. Leatherman tools are issued to U.S. military units and NASA astronauts. Supreme has collaborated with Leatherman on co-branded multi-tools.
