Micks Whips and Leathergoods reviews
8 Mick is undeniably one of the most remarkable individuals I've had the pleasure of encountering. With over thirty years of dedicated practice, he has honed his talents to perfection. The leather goods he produces exhibit the utmost quality, showcasing masterful design and craftsmanship.
Moreover, I consistently find joy in attending his performances at Mindil Market in Darwin. Mick's unwavering commitment and passion for his craft are truly inspiring. His music resonates deeply with me, and I derive immense pleasure from watching the captivating videos he creates to complement his musical pieces.
Beyond his artistic endeavors, Mick's benevolence shines through. He generously devotes significant time before and after his shows to enthusiastically educate children on the art of cracking whips. His kindness and willingness to share his skills further elevate his admirable character.
Mick gave us a great tour of the museam today, also showed us some speedwhipping. Great guy!
Mick is a really great guy and so informative. Really took the time to explain everything we wanted
Located near Berry Springs, it's a bit out of the way but for me, worth the effort. I'd seen Mick's crocodile belts at the Palmerston shopping centre and was impressed by the quality and price. After deciding to buy, I went to Palmerston the following week but Mick's stand wasn't there. After phoning, I decided to drive the 40 mins to Mick's place.
It seems like it's in the middle of nowhere, but it's an interesting drive amongst the mango orchards. Mick's place is neat and tidy. A sign says to toot your horn and wait, which I did. Mick soon appeared and showed me some crocodile skin belts. The quality is excellent. They're all hand made by Mick. There were only a few to choose from in my size, but every belt is unique. I wore my belt, so getting the right size was easy. As a keepsake and a souvenir of the Northern Territory, it is unique. I wear it now as often as I can. I noticed quite a few of the locals have a croc skin belt, now that I've bought one.
Mick is friendly and good for a yarn. A great experience. Thanks Mick.
Rippa of a bloke! Check out his museum, have a good yarn woth him you wont regret it.i purchased a whip, Mick took all the time in the world showing me how too use it and all about it.dont drive past this aussie icon.
Whether you have the pleasure of seeing Mick perform at the markets, or you drop into his shop/property driving out of Darwin - you won’t be disappointed! Get yourself one of his beautiful handcrafted whips or a crocodile product - a true Darwin keepsake for life. Mick is a bloody genuine and friendly guy, up for a chat! And not to mention he’s a pretty big deal around AUS.
Great bloke with enormous passion for his art. Can't wait to catch up when the market starts again!
This is my cooler. Unique!
A legend and an opportunity that you will not find in a travel guide. The quality of Mick’s work, world class.
