Custom Leather Goods no Longer Just for the Wealthy with Launch of Anne Wesley
With consumer demand for customizable products growing, AnneWesley.com launches made-to-order leather goods service
San Francisco, California – March 26, 2018 /MarketersMedia/ —
With one in three consumers interested in customized products, Anne Wesley is set to meet this demand within the leather goods industry with the launch of its made-to-order service. While monogramming leather goods is hardly new, Anne Wesley has taken personalization a step further by allowing customers to choose the leather type, color, thread, and hardware, in addition to allowing customers to engrave full names, messages, and corporate logos. But what makes Anne Wesley’s offering truly remarkable is that their Personalised Leather Goods are priced to rival mass-manufactured items, despite being handmade in the San Francisco Bay Area.
“I don’t believe a lot of people can name a Leather Goods Store that offers as much value as we do,” said co-owner, Craig Wesley. “Not only are all our products made-to-order, customizable, and handcrafted in the USA, but also priced nearly the same as a Chinese-made Kate Spade item. If that wasn’t enough, all our stitched products are hand sewn and we use leather that costs at least twice as much as what customers find at the mall.”
Wesley also believes its bespoke experience is a unique feature. “Customers are in contact with the same one or two people, a designer and crafter. The bespoke experience means that customers communicate with a designer who helps them get the best result. When the design is approved by the customer, an individual craftsperson works on their custom-made leather good from start to finish. Since we live in the age of social media, the craftsperson photographs the various steps of making the item and emails the photos to the customer when they’re finished. I believe the photos really help customers feel a sense of pride and appreciation in what they’re receiving. It’s a completely new online buying experience.”
Premium vegetable-tanned leather belts, wallets and totes are among the items available from Anne Wesley, each of which is offered in an always expanding range of styles and colors. Jewelry, key chains, luggage tags, passport covers, and home decor are likewise part of the company’s repertoire. In line with the rising trend toward electronics and technology, Anne Wesley additionally handcrafts camera slings, laptop cases, tablet holders, smartphone cases and other similar pieces.
Anne Wesley is also one of the few Handmade Leather Goods brands worldwide to offer fish skin leather goods. These items are crafted from various types of fish skin discarded by the seafood industry and are considered an eco-friendly and sustainable counterpart to traditional leather. Fish skin leather is touted for its durability and luxurious appearance, as well as being one of the most expensive leathers in the world.
Concluded Wesley, “Anne and I truly believe that once a customer holds in their hand something that’s made just for them, they’ll start rethinking their purchasing behavior. Hopefully, they’ll start asking themselves whether or not they’re buying a quality item or paying for expensive branding. After all, how could our small business offer so much value at nearly the same price as a multi-billion dollar leather goods company. I know there will always be people who’ll only buy brands used by celebrities, but hopefully one day those people will also realize that the ultra-wealthy prefer to buy customized products. Seriously, it’s not like red carpets are filled with celebrities wearing clothes from H&M.”
