"To Give Anything Less Than..." Leather Table Mat

A few words can change the way you approach the day. The Steve Prefontaine Leather Quote Sign turns one of Pre’s memorable statements into a lasting reminder of the determination, individuality, and competitive spirit that defined his legacy.

Crafted from natural vegetable-tanned leather, the sign brings warmth and character to a work desk, home office, shelf, or personal space. Rather than living on a screen or disappearing into a notebook, Prefontaine’s words become something tangible—a reminder you can return to again and again.

The natural leather will develop richer color and character with time, giving the piece an increasingly personal presence as it ages.

A meaningful gift for runners, coaches, track and field fans, or anyone inspired by Pre, this leather desk sign carries a small piece of running history into the places where new goals begin.

Exceptional materials. Uncompromising quality.

At Will Leather Goods, our commitment to exceptional craftsmanship begins with the leather itself. With over 40 years of experience, we've learned that the quality of the hide and the way it's treated make all the difference in how a product looks, feels, and ages.

Full-Grain Leather — The Highest Standard

Full-grain leather is widely regarded as the finest grade of leather available. It preserves the hide's natural outer surface, where the fibers are strongest and most densely woven. Unlike lower grades that are sanded or heavily corrected, full-grain leather retains its natural strength, distinctive grain, and authentic character. The result is exceptionally durable leather that softens, develops a beautiful patina, and becomes more distinctive with age.

Vegetable-Tanned Leather — A Time-Honored Tradition

Vegetable tanning is a centuries-old process that uses natural tannins derived from tree bark and other plant materials to transform raw hides into beautiful, durable leather. This traditional, time-intensive method produces leather celebrated for its rich character, natural feel, and ability to develop a distinctive patina over years of use.

The WILL Difference

We believe extraordinary leather shouldn't simply look beautiful when it's new. It should grow more meaningful with every passing year. That's why we value authentic materials and traditional craftsmanship, creating leather goods intended to be carried for decades and handed down for generations.

Good leather ages. Exceptional leather tells a story.
