Denver Leathermen’s Forum

The Denver Leathermen’s Forum (DLF) is an education and discussion group founded in January of 2023, in collaboration with the Denver Eagle. We are a community-led organization, and our vision is to bring together men in Denver interested in fetish, kink, BDSM, and leather for a healthy exchange of ideas and skills.

The forum meets 6:30-8:30pm on the first Thursday of each month at The Denver Eagle.

Questions and comments can be directed to forum@rockymountainleather.org.
