How it all started

Re:Designed was born out of a passion for fashion, when the brand in 2003 started to distribute clothes from Italy. Initially, all operations were run from home as the demand for accessories like watches & handbags grew. In 2006 the company had outgrown the home garages and shipping containers, which had served as a warehouse for the growing stock.

Today Re:Designed is a love story of enduring quality & functionality. Our designs embrace the principles of slow fashion,
combining timeless aesthetics with exceptional quality. With a presence in
36 countries, our key focus is on QUALITY LEATHER. We take immense pride in our bestsellers, crafted from durable yet supple leather that resists wear and
tear, ensuring these timeless pieces never go out of style.

Steps towards a better tomorrow

We prioritize quality over quantity, focusing on the use of durable leather that combines impressive durability with timeless charm.

Our products are designed to last for years, and we see leather as an investment in the future - less stuff more meaning. All pieces are put together by hand, finishing it all off with a coating lacquer and wax to enhance the aesthetic and performance of each and every product.

Comsume Less, Buy Better..

Low Waste
Overproduction in fashion is one of the world’s biggest environmental threats. To counter this issue, we have developed a close relation to our supplier, & adopted a bespoke arrangement which allows us to have a low minimum quantities on orders. This allows us to produce small runs of inventory instead of mass bulk. This is to reduce waste & to ensure that our customers are repping unique styles.
Hangtags
Our hangtags are FSC® certificated.
FSC® is the world's most trusted certification scheme for sustainable forestry.

The FSC certificate shows that our hangtags are made of wood or other forest-based products from sustainable forests and other responsible sources. An FSC forest area will be the same generation after generation. FSC ensures that the forest is managed with respect for animals, plant life and humans.
Packaging
We want our packaging to have the smallest possible carbon footprint. It is made from Scandinavian trees, grown in FSC-certified forests. Produced Scandinavian mills, using climate friendly renewable energy sources. At each step we minimize the CO2 emissions. We calculate the small remaining footprint and compensate for this in a Gold Standard project. Making our packaging 100% Climate Neutral.
Animal Welfare
All our leather is supported by EU´s rules of animal welfare: free from hunger and thirst, discomfort, pain, injuries, diseases, normal behaviour and free from fear. Our leather comes from the meat production, where we will use as much of the leather as possible to minimize and reduce the waste.
Transportation
To support a green environment, most goods will be transported by sea, which reduces less CO2 than by plane. Therefore you will find that 90% of our production will be shipped.
Validated working conditions
Our production is validated by SMETA which is Sedex's social audit method, which makes it possible for companies to evaluate their suppliers and working conditions in the supply chain.
This ensures good conditions in terms of working standards, health and safety at the workplace as well as environment and work ethics.
Production
Our design process begins in-house, where we carefully plan each styles shape and measurements, as well as choices such as leather quality, hardware color, embossment placement, studs, and interior compartments.

We select only the finest quality leather to ensure durability and aesthetics. The raw leather is precisely cut into components. Each piece is meticulously hand-waxed, resulting in a soft finish. Finishing touches, including logos and edge details, are added with precision. 

Our skilled artisans at our family run factories in India, hand-assemble all components. Stringent quality checks are conducted to uphold our high standards. Bags are thoughtfully packed for secure shipment and lastly dispatched to our warehouse in Denmark.
