We are putting a lot of effort into making Property Of.. sustainable

BUY LESS, BUY BETTER

This is our main mantra. Because it doesn’t matter how much recycled fabric was used to make a bag if you have to throw it away after a few months. Our goal is to create bags that last long and age well. All Property Of... items come with a lifelong warranty.

NO OVER-PRODUCTION

A huge problem in the fashion industry is big brands throwing away tons of over-produced stock to clear their warehouses. We focus on timeless designs that last several seasons and place relatively small orders with our factory.

RECYCLED FABRIC & VEGETABLE-TANNED LEATHER

We develop most of our fabrics ourselves and use recycled or organic fabrics where possible. We also use vegetable-tanned leather in all our styles. In our view, real leather is preferable to so-called ‘vegan leather/PVC’ because it lasts much longer and cuts out the need for the toxic chemicals used to make PVC.

STRONG PARTNERSHIP WITH OUR FACTORY

Our bags are produced in Shenzhen. Ten or fifteen years ago, manufacturers chose China for its low labor costs but it’s these days known for having a highly skilled workforce. We have been working with our factory for over 8 years and value our close partnership.
