Ride with the Real “King of the Road” — CSC’s Steve Kurzman

What does it take to become a master trimmer? Aside from getting formal training, nothing beats years of hands-on experience and a love of the craft. After years of being known as “the owner’s son,” his ambition to create something on his own drove Steve Kurzman to open The Custom Stitching Co. in Charlotte, North Carolina.

The Custom Stitching Co. is not your average upholstery shop. Founded in 2013, the shop quickly gained a reputation for thinking outside the box and applying design-forward creativity to all projects. CSC prides itself on delivering cutting-edge designs, no matter if it’s a large-scale bespoke interior or one of CSC’s signature Harley Davidson restyled seats.

You can listen to the episode on Apple Podcasts, Spotify or anywhere else you stream. Just click here, and make sure to subscribe!
