We visited Ray at his workshop in Nottingham during the sampling process of O Sacoche. Ray makes all O Totes and O Sacoches from start to finish himself. After learning the art of pattern cutting and sewing at college, Ray went on to open a small factory making trousers. The factory is no longer there but Ray continues to make and enjoy the repetition involved in getting something just right.

It’s Fashion Revolution Week (23 – 29 April 2018) and we’re supporting the global movement that is calling for a fairer, safer, cleaner more transparent Fashion industry by introducing you to the small leather goods factory we work with, as well as donating 10% of online sales during this week to Fashion Revolution.

Working with British manufacturers means we visit our makers regularly; it is an essential part of our development process and a privilege during final production. Last week, we arrived whilst all hands were on deck making for Campbell Cole - a great opportunity to see a highly skilled team in action.
