O My Bag

O My Bag is a fashion accessories brand that creates leather bags and accessories in a socially conscious way. An O My Bag is classic, practical, and fashionable. Made of the best leather, but with that authentic vintage feel. Sophisticated, but not boring. Casual, with an edge, but above all, a leather bag that you can flaunt without guilt. Mid-2010 Paulien Wesselink, founder of O My Bag, travelled to India to visit manufacturers. Leather is one of India’s biggest export products, so she met with dozens of diverse producers. She wanted to set up a social enterprise that would not only become profitable, but also give back by approaching business in a fair, sustainable manner. This was not going to be your ordinary bag, and a responsible approach was key. Their bags are made from a unique kind of eco-leather, that is supplied from local Indian cows, and is tanned without harmful chemicals. This adds up to a cleaner, safer tanning process and reduces their carbon footprint. In the area of Kolkata, India, every O My Bag is created with love in the safe and positive atmosphere of fair-trade: where fair wages and benefits are paid, women are empowered and training and education is offered. At O My bag they make great bags that will not only make you happy, but also the world around you.
