Exceptional design combined with the highest quality materials gives us the Jekyll & Hide brand overview. The English manufacturer is already highly recognized in the international market, especially among conscious consumers who love the best style, quality, and unique design. Jekyll & Hide is a lifestyle brand that blends original craftsmanship and attention to detail with fresh style and a modern approach — creating timeless pieces that will accompany you on your journey through life.

Launched in Cape Town in 2002, Jekyll & Hide was created to provide "real" everyday partners for those seeking authentic, durable leather accessories. The brand’s roots lie in functionality — combining classic design with modern demands. Jekyll & Hide products merge functionality and design that surpass fashion trends and fads. Today, it is an international brand available at some of the most prestigious retail outlets worldwide.

LEATHER

Their leather is hand-selected, firm, and durable full-grain cowhide, which is beautiful, long-lasting, and tanned using traditional and natural vegetable tanning processes. Full-grain leather is considered the strongest and most durable type of leather. It is designed to be resistant to moisture and, over time, develop a more beautiful patina. Jekyll & Hide adheres to principles and practices that respect animals and the environment, allowing for the production of luxurious leather collections. Therefore, no harmful chemicals are used in the tanning process.

SUSTAINABILITY

Durability is in their DNA. So, when they considered how to contribute to the future of our planet, they looked inward and decided to apply their internal ethos to a sustainable vision. Most of their products are stylish leather goods. This will not change, but today they pay more attention to doing it differently.

RECYCLABLE MATERIALS

In line with their sustainability declaration, the brand has begun replacing all its fabrics with 100% recycled materials derived from used plastic bottles. To date, they have recycled and diverted over 95,000 plastic bottles from landfills and oceans.

SPEKBOOM PROJECT

The company partnered with a dynamic local nursery to help offset its carbon footprint through the cultivation and maintenance of Spekboom. This proud South African plant is one of the most effective in the world at removing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. For this project, Jekyll & Hide secured its own hectare of land and plans to grow around 6,000 plants in 2020.
