Nelson
Mandela and Steven Spielberg, have something in
common. Guess what? Both of them carry Hidesign bags... the
only International leather fashion brand from India, which
occupies prime shelf space at the world's major retail stores.
Started in 1978 as a one-man artisan workshop for leather
bags and jackets, Hidesign's growth into a renowned brand
distributed under its own brand name across the world is amazing.
Hidesign's products occupy shelf space at the world's major
retail stores like John Lewis,
Selfridges and House of Fraser in the UK, Myers and David
Jones in Australia, Edgar's and Stuttafords in South Africa,
Nordstrom in the USA and Magasin du Nord in Denmark.
.
Hidesign also has the credit of getting into the Guinness
Book of World Records for making the world's biggest bag.Having
an exclusive factory in Pondicherry, its foray into the domestic
market has been a remarkable development. Having established
their first retail outlet in 1996, today they have a total
of 12 outlets in all major metros.
Hidesign
products are made of genuine leather with solid brass buckles,
each individually sand cast and hand polished, reflecting
old saddlery traditions.Avoiding the excessive use of pigments,
binders or lacquers which make leather virtually indistinguishable
from synthetic material, the high quality Hidesign products
are unique and eco-friendly.
Hidesign products include ladies bags, wallets, brief cases,
executive bags, garments and other small items ranging from
Rs 75 to Rs 12,000.
Believe me, step into Hidesign, the leather boutique at Shrungar
Complex on M G Road and at 49, Commercial Street and you won't
walk out empty handed.
