At Kristen Aronsson our design philosophy involves keeping it simple and light; we strive to find the most efficient and stylish way to carry all our needs through each busy day. All our pieces are free from heavy hardware with a focus on simplicity of form and pure, beautiful materials.

All pieces are handmade in the NYC Garment District with sweatshop-free labor. We feel strongly about supporting this historical and endangered local industry. We use only the best quality leathers from Italian tanneries with the most rigid standards of environmental purity. Click here for more information: http://www.madeinnyc.org

A percentage of each purchase is donated to a local charity in our Brooklyn neighborhood who humanely helps control the feral cat population. We are so thankful for their dedication and tireless efforts. Click here for more information: http://www.neighborhoodcats.org/
