Meet Manon, the founder, designer and creator of KRAM KRAM leather design. Since 2018, she's been dedicated to creating sustainable, stylish and functional items made from second-chance leather. Manon distinguishes herself by only using leather that is labeled as surplus by the major fashion houses. This is how this leather is saved from going to waste.
Tired of seeing products where aesthetics were prioritised over sustainability and functionality, Manon decided to make a change. She quit her job as a teacher to pursue her passion for creating durable and eco-friendly leather goods. Each item in the KRAM KRAM leather design collection is personally designed and made by Manon.
Manon believes in giving new life to leather that would otherwise go to waste. And by using second-chance leather, she ensures that each piece is of high quality and contributes to a more environmentally conscious approach to fashion.
