AMSTRDAM COWBOYS

Amsterdam Cowboys is a new premium leather lifestyle brand for leather bags, belts, footwear, home décor and accessories.

They are designed for individuals who have a strong character, and aren’t afraid to show it. People who are strong-willed. Outspoken. Who follow their intuition and crave a little adventure in life.

Our collection is strong-willed, too. For example, on quality we make no compromises. We only work with premium leather. All products are made from 100% natural materials. We care about the environment and respect our materials.

Our claim is ADD CHARACTER. It means that while every product in our collection has a strong personality, they still leave enough room for your customers to reveal theirs.



BRAND STORY

SHAPING YOUR CHARACTER CAN BE CHALLENGING.
YOU HAVE TO MAKE DECISIONS BASED ON WHO YOU ARE, AND WHAT YOU NEED.
AND AT THE SAME TIME STAY CURIOUS ABOUT NEW POSSIBILITIES.

EXAMINE. EXPERIMENT. MAYBE FAIL ONCE OR TWICE.
GO OFF THE BEATEN TRACK TO DISCOVER NEW THINGS ABOUT THE WORLD. AND YOURSELF.

THIS TAKES GUTS. AND WILLPOWER. BECAUSE THERE WILL BE BARRIERS.

BUT WE ARE ALL BORN WITH INTUITION. SO WHY NOT USE IT?
AND HEY, WHAT’S LIFE WITHOUT SOME ADVENTURE?

SO BE BOLD. FOLLOW YOUR INSTINCTS. EXPLORE THE LONG JOURNEY AHEAD, DESPITE THE RISKS. AND ALONG THE WAY, SHOW OFF YOUR TRUE CHARACTER. WITH TIME IT WILL ONLY GET MORE POWERFUL.

JUST LIKE OUR PRODUCTS. FOR THEY ARE MADE FROM NATURAL MATERIALS, THEY ALL HAVE THEIR OWN PERSONALITY, THEIR OWN CHARACTER, STRONG AND OUTSPOKEN. BUT AT THE SAME TIME, THEY LEAVE ENOUGH ROOMS FOR YOURS.

ADD CHARACTER.


ECO STORY

THIS IS OUR ECOSTORY, SO LET’S BE FRANK - AT AMSTERDAM COWBOYS OUR MAIN GOAL IS TO PRODUCE THE BEST QUALITY LEATHER GOODS FOR PEOPLE AROUND THE WORLD TO ENJOY. BUT DURING OUR JOURNEY TOWARDS THIS GOAL, WE NEVER LOSE TRACK OF THE EFFECT THIS HAS ON ANIMALS, PEOPLE AND OUR PLANET.

Nearly all the skins we use, come from meat cows in the US. They’re not solely bred for their skin; the leather is a by-product.

After cleaning and tanning the skins, they are ready for further use. Special waxes and oils can be added. We use fish oil from our hometown, Amsterdam, as well as the best natural waxes from Italy and Spain.

Of course we do everything to minimize our waste. For example, we never throw away leather. The pieces of leather that don’t stand up to our quality test, are used in other products. The process of tanning, oiling and waxing the leather, produce some waste. We make sure that none of this ends up in the natural environment.

The quality of our bags, belts and accessories is very important for Amsterdam Cowboys. That is why we work with sustainable partners and the best tannery in Mexico. - All our workers in the tannery in Mexico are totally legal. The salary they get paid is fair and the working conditions are human. Using child labour for our products is out of the question.

The water that is used for tanning leather is collected, filtered and re-used. We make sure that none of it ends up in drinking water.

We never use exotic skins from animals like crocodiles, alligators and lizards. The prints on our products are patterns that are embossed into the leather.
