Are Studio sources and produces their collections by hand in Los Angeles at small family-owned facilities with ethical practices. The designer, Ceclia Bordarampé, has a close, personal and trusting relationship with all of her production partners.
Are Studio works with supple naked finish cow leather that wears beautifully over time and preserves natural imperfections. This brand also repurposes leather scraps and avoids using any dyes whatsoever to reduce water waste.
