Since its establishment in 2016, Polène brand has been dedicated to exceptional craftsmanship and creativity. The commitment to artisanal skill lies at the core of its ethos. As a result, Polène continues to rely on the talented craftsmen of Ubrique, Spain for the design and construction of its leather goods.
Polène has achieved what very few contemporary brands can – delivering a high level of luxury and craftsmanship at a modern price point. This achievement is all thanks to its skilled craftspeople. In an effort to uphold transparency, Polène is now welcoming its customers behind the scenes.
Introducing the Hors Champ Project, a campaign that provides an insider’s perspective on Polène’s craftsmen. This campaign offers a glimpse into life in Ubrique and uncovers the creativity that defines both the town and its people, with a focus on their hands to tell their story.
The creativity of Ubrique blends seamlessly into the Polène brand, which is why Ubrique remains the ideal location for Polène’s workshop. Widely recognized for its exceptional leather goods and unparalleled talent, Ubrique has been Polène’s production hub since the beginning. Currently, over 1,300 artisans work to bring Polène’s designs to life, all within a three-mile radius.
While the bags themselves are designed in the brand’s Parisian studio, all steps involved in creating and producing each design occur within the immediate vicinity. This includes everything from leather reception to order dispatch. The town’s rich heritage in leather crafting has been passed down through generations, and Polène has leveraged local production to maintain control over its quality.
The quality of Polène’s bags is evident, and experiencing the bags in real life further reinforces that story. With its new campaign, Polène takes the opportunity to unveil the story behind the bags for the first time. Discover more and explore the unique stories of its artisans through Polène.
