Deborah Thomas
Founded by Deborah Thomas in 2013, Doe Leather,
focuses on one simple thing: making covetable leather bags
and accessories using the best materials and most skilled craftspeople.
With a design studio in Suffolk and working with a traditional family run factory
in the West Midlands, Deborah is committed to retaining her British heritage
and can guarantee that ‘Made in England’ means just that.
Using the highest quality bridle hide she makes a collection of bags and
small leather goods which improve with age. Customisable zip pulls, linings
and loops from the family tannery archives adorn every piece, giving each
a unique provenance.
In a world of fast-fashion and flash logos, Deborah believes real luxury
comes from taking the time to do things slowly. Considered purchasing,
as opposed to impulse buying, gives you the chance to know and trust a brand
before investing. Slow fashion is more than just a fad - it’s a thoughtful,
rewarding process which connects you to the pieces you wear in a way that
can only be achieved when you truly know its provenance.
