From the bottom of our hearts, thank you

Why buy from HAPTIC aka Cindy & Eric?

Unlike huge, anonymous factories, this is the entire operation: Eric, me, my family, Lan, and Uyen. We are transparent about the labor practices behind the straps because we are proud and love each product we make.

We have lived in Vietnam and are very cognizant of global inequality, especially in labor practices. This is why we price our products the way we do. We  give a fair and respectful wage to everyone involved. We do not run a wholesale factory, but support honest and beautiful work.
