Why
When it comes to making handbags, it is often overlooked just how handmade every part of the process is
Best Artisanship
The Garment District has been offering the best talent and craftmanship in the US since the early 20th century as the center for fashion manufacturing
Small Batch Production
Only feasible when producing locally instead of overseas, so that we keep environmental impact to the minimum by avoid overproducing
Quality & Transparency
