Zakk Wylde has been a cornerstone Red Monkey artist since the early days, with a relationship that traces back to his Pride & Glory era and a chance meeting with founder Torry Pendergrass in Laurel Canyon in 1996.

Since then, Red Monkey has been building Zakk’s signature leather pieces—including guitar straps, stage-worn vests, and leather cuffs—forming a core part of his unmistakable look both on and off stage. Designed for durability and presence, these pieces are built to handle his aggressive playing style and relentless touring schedule.

Seen across decades of performances with Black Label Society and beyond, this gear is not a one-off or styled placement—it’s part of Zakk’s identity. This is a true long-term collaboration, rooted in craftsmanship, trust, and a shared rock ’n’ roll DNA that’s been going strong for nearly three decades.
