## Sustainability story

Since 2014, we've strived to minimise our impact on the environment and to create sustainable, durable tools that only get better with age. We don’t follow seasons, we design for longevity. We want our products to be handed down to future generations, picking up character with every passing year and be used many times longer than alternatives.

Our environmentally-certified Tuscan leather is a byproduct of the meat industry. Our Oeko-Tex cotton pouches are designed to be reused and our inserts are made from recycled card. Also, since May 2020 we’ve been contributing to initiatives like the Jari Pará Forest Conservation Project in the Amazon to offset 100% of all carbon emissions generated from our deliveries.
