Patou Cares
- Upcycled leather
- Made in Spain
A unique leather for a unique bag
La Patou and Le Petit Patou are the iconic leather goods of the Maison. In staying true to our ethos of sustainability in our development, we refuse to produce new leather to manufacture Le Patou and Le Petit Patou. We use high quality upcycled deadstock – leathers that were already produced but unused – which we in turn, carefully select, to give it a new life. We limit waste by using high quality raw materials that already exist, creating a bag that is not only ethically made, but will last you a lifetime. Since our leather stock is limited, each bag is a limited edition: every bag is numbered, just like a work of art!
A know-how of excellence
Taking inspiration and shape from our JP logo, Le Patou and Le Petit Patou were designed in the heart of Paris, in our studio on Ile de la Cité. The designs then made our way to our manufacturer in the town of Ubrique, Spain, in a workshop famous for its expertise in leather goods production for over 30 years. The artisans carefully select each piece of leather, which is then cut by hand. Seven pieces of leather are then assembled. Metal parts are applied, buffed, and shined. Finally, the bag is put into its own organic cotton duster bag. A precious process, Le Patou is ready for you!
