The Dying Artisanal Leather Tradition in Morocco
Real handcrafted leather goods that will last a lifetime are beginning to disappear.
The problem starts with large global manufacturers flooding markets with low-quality replicas of traditionally high-quality Moroccan leather products cheap to tourists locally and at high markups globally. In turn, the real artisans—the guys who know their leather sources, who know centuries-old traditional Moroccan designs, and who handcraft their products to last a lifetime are beginning to disappear.
The Last Old Fashioned Leather Bag Artisans
Growing up in Morocco's capital, Kamal Jahid had an idea to keep his centuries-old heritage alive.
Traveling back to Morocco, Kamal and his soon to be business partner David sought after and found traditionally handmade Moroccan bags they'd both own for a lifetime. On their flight home, they were stopped countless times with envy eyes on these highly sought after leather bags. That's where the idea sparked. Everybody loved them. Why not offer these bags to the world and keep the tradition alive?

Living in Warsaw, Kamal Jahid had a second idea to create a leather and design collaboration.
Kamal and his partner Davide noticed that Poland experimenting with some of Europe's of the highest quality leather and why not put Moroccan designs with Europe's fine quality leather and parts? Soon they began working closely with Moroccan leather artisans to hand create vintage luxury bags, giving a taste of the Moroccan medinas (markets).
