Where else can I buy O My Bag products?

O My Bag products are available at www.omybagamsterdam.com, at our own Amsterdam store, as well as at our carefully selected resellers and their stores/websites.

You can find a complete list of these stores by going directly to our store locator.

If you think there’s a website selling our brand that looks a bit fishy, it probably is! Be careful if the website is doing large discounts and/or does not seem to match our brand values, since it’s then very likely that they’re fake. If you would like to be sure when purchasing from a website or retailer, feel free to message us for confirmation on wether you are dealing with an official O My Bag reseller.

Sustainability

What do you mean by 'fairly made' products?

We work together with different manufacturers in Kolkata, India. All our factories operate under fair conditions (and meet the SA 8000 Certification Standards to ensure that). The EMA (Equitable Marketing Association) factory even has a World Fair Trade Certification. Over the years we have built firm relationships with our partners. We talk to our producers on a daily basis which helps us to keep direct insights into, and control over, our supply chain.

Though we don’t use the Fair Trade certification for our products, all of them are made with love and passion under fair conditions with respect for the people and environment in India.

So with every purchase you make, we can contribute to a better world with fairly-paid jobs, safe working environments, equal opportunities and women empowerment.

How is your leather sustainable?

We try to have a minimal environmental impact and therefore our products are made from sustainable leather. This means our leathers are tanned without the use of harmful chemicals, like chromium. Also, water and energy are managed at the tannery. Our leather will age beautifully over time the more you use it. It deepens in color, gets softer, and develops a nice sheen.

Why don't you have a vegan collection?

We do not use any alternative synthetic materials that are called vegan leather alternatives. Alternatives to real leather are made from PU, PVC or other composite microfibers (plastics), which produce many harmful toxins in the production process. These alternatives will never last as long or age and develop over time. Our leather articles are designed to last, and will always outlast the plastic alternatives.

One of the most responsible things we can do for our planet is to only make high quality products that can be worn and used for years. We make an effort to design timeless pieces that you can carry and cherish for years. In a circular economy the most beneficial circle is longevity, repair and reuse. Usually it is a thread or zip that goes, rather than the leather itself. We make sure that we elongate the products lifetime by providing careful care tips and repairing when possible.

We believe that using vegetable tanned leather is currently the most sustainable option. The hides that are used to tan leather are a waste product that would otherwise be thrown away and a chrome-free vegetable tanned hide is a high quality durable material. Chrome is a harmful chemical and when not used carefully can have a negative environmental impact. Since we produce in India, where pollution is an important risk, we choose to tan without chromium.

Is your packaging sustainable?

Our packaging is made from recycled materials and is certified by Forest Stewardship Council (FSC). The cardboard boxes that transport your new O My Bag safely to any place in the world is made from materials that come from local sources in The Netherlands.

In 2018 we started working with RePack. RePack is a reusable packaging service that aims to save the world from trash. A super simple solution to an ever-growing problem! Here’s how it works: you can choose to have your purchase shipped in a returnable and reusable RePack. After returning your RePack, you will be rewarded with a 10% discount on your next order at O My Bag and all brands that use Repack. The voucher is sent to you by email from RePack.
