Story Behind HENRI STRAP
The HENRI neck strap, HENRI wrist strap, and ERICKIM strap are all 100% handmade, crafted with care from start to finish. Each HENRI strap is hand-made by two of our friends, Lan and Uyen who areย a leather craftsmen and artists in Saigon.
Cindy and Iย are their clients and collaborators, and we worked together with them to design the strap. Since they are our friends and collaborators, they have always set the price for the straps to cover their costs and labor. Lan and Uyen source the leather, handmake the straps during the weekdays between music gigs, and ship them to California from Saigon.
Rather than mass produced, these are handmade in small, limited-quantity batches in order to preserve a level of excellent craftsmanship and quality. Each strap is unique.
Once they get to California, Eric and I, (and now with the help of our loving and supportive family) work to quality check, finish, and package each strap:
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 live in Vietnam currently and are very cognizant of global inequality, especially in labor practices. This is why we price our products the way we do. We want to give aย fair and respectful wage to everyone involved. We do not run a wholesale factory, but support honest and beautiful work.
