Exclusive to CRAVE · Lafayette, LA
Make Your Mark with W.E.L.P. — Artisan quality, hand-finished in Lafayette.
Located in Lafayette, Louisiana, CRAVE is the exclusive home of W.E.L.P. Lead artisan Mike Menard leverages decades of mastery to craft premium, handmade leatherwork and lifestyle accessories. From precision-crafted BDSM gear to exotic alligator wallets, every piece is hand-cut from superior hides, including python, stingray, and cobra.
Impact Play
We specialize in professional-grade impact toys designed for precision, durability, and aesthetic beauty. Every piece is handcrafted by Mike Menard, ensuring that the balance and “thud” of each item is perfected before it hits our shelves.
Hand-cut from premium cowhide, deerskin, or exotic leathers. Each tail engineered for consistent weight and flow.
Turned on a lathe from reclaimed Cajun Country cypress or exotic hardwoods like Bocote and Padauk.
Crafted from high-density woods, metal, and reinforced leather. Designed for longevity and impact control.
Flexible, lightweight, and precise — wrapped in premium leather with a hand-stitched keeper loop.
Cuffs, Collars & Connectors
Every piece of W.E.L.P. gear is built for comfort and longevity. We prioritize skin-friendly leather linings to ensure a soft, non-chafing feel against the body, even during extended wear.
D-rings, harness connectors, spikes and embellishments available in gold or silver tones.
Every piece buckles to hold under pressure — fits a full range of sizes from petite to fashion-xxl.

Mike Menard — Lead Artisan, W.E.L.P.
Because we use natural hides, no two items are exactly alike. The “imperfections” in the leather are what make it a pleasure — and a privilege.
Hand-stitched and lock-stitched edges ensure these pieces survive the rigors of daily use far longer than mass-produced alternatives.
Completely personal and personalized — ideal for groomsmen gifts, anniversaries, and milestones.
“When you choose a handmade piece from CRAVE, you aren’t just buying a product — you’re investing in a story.”
