Lessons from the Exceptional Giveaway
A testament to legacy pieces.
We honor our mission by creating a community of people focused on history, ethics, and individuality. Our goal is to showcase the value of everyone’s story, while reinforcing the fact quality and depth create a lasting impact.
The exceptional giveaway brings together our love of leather goods with the stories and memories that make them living legacy pieces. We have been honored to read your submissions, and look forward to randomly drawing a winner after the 30th of September. Until then we have selected three entries that teach us the value of exceptional and iconic memories.
Lesson 1:
More than legacy pieces, partners.
The Entry:
“I traveled throughout the country with my J.L. Rocha Bag, we were inseparable.”
- Lisa P.
The Lesson:
We love this entry because it reminds us that what you take with you can stay with you. Regardless of traveling alone or with a group, there are items you take that travel with you - those items live with the lasting legacy of memories.
We wish all our community safety, luxury, and wonder throughout all their travel - and are honored that you take us with you on the road.
Lesson #2
Love and leather go together.
The Entry:
“I met the love of my life wearing a leather jacket.”
- June R.
The Lesson
This entry is one of many that remind us that love leaves a lasting legacy in leather. No matter what item, leather goods seem to stand out in memories of meeting - even Jose-Noel met his wife in one of our leather jackets; reminding us that when you live with love, even in what you wear, it always finds you.
We hope that our entire community keeps love in their hearts as they venture through this life - it is the commitment to loving each other the right way that brings our world closer together.
Lesson #3
What makes something exceptional, is how you share it.
It’s no surprise that many of our entries focused on people they love, things they’ve done, or moments they’ve lived. We loved this entry because it encapsulates the essence of legacy pieces. Artisans made leather goods are meant to be cared for as meticulously as they are made - with love and consideration, they will leave a legacy for the next generation.
Our brand started in the U.S.A. to bring our family closer together, strengthen the families of artisans in our hometown, and grow our family across the globe. We are always encouraged by seeing the amazing way you live your values.
Closing Notes:
While there can only be one winner for the exceptional giveaway - everyone is indeed exceptional. The moments that stand out in our lives, breaking the cycle of what feels commonplace are effervescent in the way we live. We want to encourage all our community to sit with these moments while appreciating everyone you love. Thank you for sharing your memories with us, and being a part of our family.
