Make Your Mark with W.E.L.P. — Artisan quality, hand-finished in Lafayette.
The Art of the Maker: W.E.L.P. at CRAVE
Located in Lafayette, Louisiana, CRAVE is the exclusive home of W.E.L.P. (Wonky Eye Leather Products). 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. Mike’s dedication to quality extends to his woodwork, featuring hand-turned handles made from reclaimed Cajun County cypress and exotic woods like African mahogany.
Impact-full
Feeling adventurous?
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.
Custom Floggers: Our floggers are engineered for various sensations, from "stingy" to "thuddy." Mike hand-cuts each tail from premium cowhide, deerskin, or exotic leathers, ensuring a consistent weight and flow.
Hand-Turned Handles: Each one is turned on a lathe from reclaimed Cajun County cypress or exotic hardwoods like Bocote and Padauk, providing a secure, ergonomic grip. For those looking for a more specialized weight or aesthetic, we offer weighted metal handles and even dual-use glass dildo handles.
Slappers & Paddles: Crafted from high-density woods, metal and reinforced leather, our paddles are designed for longevity and impact control.
Bondage Wear
Cuffs, Collars, and Connectors
Tailored for comfort, built for command.
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.
Our standard hardware includes D-rings, chevron harness connectors, spikes and embellishments, available in gold or silver tones. For a secure, custom fit, we use nickel-plated adjustable brass buckles that offer both strength and a refined finish.
Custom Upgrades: Stainless steel hardware is available upon request for custom orders, providing maximum durability and hypoallergenic properties.
Superior Adjustability: Featuring heavy-duty brass buckles designed to hold position under pressure. Because all W.E.L.P. gear is handcrafted, we offer a vast range of sizes to ensure a perfect fit. From the most petite wrist to the burliest neck, we've got ya'll covered.

Why Handcrafted Matters
When you choose a handmade accessory from CRAVE, you aren't just buying a product—you're investing in quality over quantity.
Unique Character:
Because we use natural hides, no two items are exactly alike. The "imperfections" in the leather are what make it authentic.
Built to Last:
Hand-stitched seams and finished edges ensure these pieces survive the rigors of daily use much longer than mass-produced alternatives.
The Perfect Gift:
Many of our leather goods can be personalized, making them the ideal choice for groomsmen gifts, anniversaries, or milestones.
