Original Harris Tweed - Real Stuff for Real People, handcrafted Bags in Morocco by LABEL17

The long archipelago of the Outer Hebrides, Scotland - in the far northwest of Europe - is home to all of Harris Tweed's weavers, dyers, blenders, charcoal burners, spinners, warpers, finishers and inspectors. No part of the process takes place anywhere else.

Thus, the country and its people are woven into the fabric, which reflects the colours of the landscapes, the beauty of the views there, and the values ​​of the people.

To the north of the remote island chain lies the Isle of Lewis - a rugged and desolately beautiful land of heather and moorland, lakes and rivers - home to the port town of Stornoway and the three Harris Tweed mills.

More mountainous than its northern brother, the Isle of Harris boasts some of the world's most beautiful beaches, with golden, fine shell sand, shallow, azure seas and a wealth of hidden farms and villages.

South of this main island lies a series of smaller islands, including the Machair Meadows and the lake-dotted islands of the Uists and beautiful Barra at the very tip.

For generations, a special fabric has been produced on these islands:

Harris Tweed.

FAQ

What kind of leather does LABEL17 use?

We use nappa leather for our leather bags and accessories. This is vegetable tanned, which has less impact on the environment.

What about the weight of LABEL17 bags?

The advantage of the lambskin nappa leather we use is that we can use it thinly, which has a direct impact on the weight: the bags are exceptionally light.

Are LABEL17 bags durable?

LABEL17 bags are designed for everyday use. They are intended to bring joy to our customers every day, so it is important to us that they can cope with all everyday situations.
