We are thrilled to tell you that, as announced during The Leather Benefit on London Leather Weekend, the Mr London Leather competition will indeed make a comeback as a fully-fledged title with the winner announced in March 2024.
We, your committee members, have been working on this title for quite some time. We wanted to create a title that is local, well-defined, and would embody the spirit of London Leathermen.
We will open the sign-up sheets on November 11th, 2023, and close them on January 1st, 2024. In the months ensuing, candidates will be interviewed, answer the community’s questions, and present themselves to the general public. In March, following a club member vote and a committee vote, Mr London Leather 2024 will be announced at the Annual General Assembly.
If this sounds like it might be of interest to you, or anyone you know, please have a look at what we are looking for in a candidate:
The Criteria
Mr London Leather will proudly represent London Leathermen and will strive to embody the values of our club.
Mr London Leather will act as an ambassador for the London leathermen. They will participate in our events often, and lend a helping hand whenever needed.
Mr London Leather is expected to focus on impactful, real-life activism within the London community. If you love to make a difference, then this title is for you.
Mr London Leather candidates will need to present a unique project proposal for their tenure – a project close to their heart, that they are committed to bringing to life if chosen. In turn, the club will support them in bringing it to fruition.
While competing in international competitions is available to Mr London Leather, Mr London Leather’s top priority will always be their local community.
In the unlikely event of no candidate fulfilling the criteria for Mr London leather, then the title of Mr London Leather will not be awarded for that year.
Should a standing Mr London Leather conduct themselves in a way that acts counter to the club’s values, or brings the reputation of the club into disrepute, the title may be rescinded.
