The only thing that isn't luxurious about our bags is the price.

craftsmanship

This is how your Harbour 2nd is created

All unique!

During our individual manufacturing process, each bag undergoes variations in size, color, and surface texture – just like a genuine natural product. Our passion requires two things above all: plenty of time and the highest level of craftsmanship.

Step by step:

1

Selection of leather

Only the most beautiful natural leather is approved for production.

2

Cutting & Sewing

Each piece is cut, sewn, and metal parts and lining are incorporated.

3

Dyeing & Washing

The bag is fully dyed and washed, giving it its unique color depth.

4

Finishing & Control

After drying, it gets its final Harbour 2nd look – by hand.

Creative time

Every bag begins with an idea. Our designs are created with passion on sketch paper – we draw inspiration from the city, the harbor, and real people.
