Tell us about pampeano

pampeano is a premium leather goods brand, known for our signature pampeano belts.聽 pampeano remains one of the few luxury brands with quality and traditional craftsmanship at its heart; from beautiful timeless pieces including sports bags, leather travel bags, wash bags, pet accessories and small leather goods, complete with luxury gift ready packaging.

How did you come up with the idea for the company?聽

While visiting Argentina in my 20s, I was blown away when visiting the Talabateria鈥檚 in Buenos Aires and Cordoba. They sold the most beautiful clothing, leather goods and equestrian products made from natural materials and handcrafted by Argentinian artisans. Coupled with the beauty of the natural landscapes of the La Pampa plains with their earthy tones, endless skies, and rich vegetation, I was so inspired. The deep blues, greens, and browns found in pampeano鈥檚 leather goods evoke the natural hues of the pampas, from the sky to the soil.

Each pampeano product is handcrafted by skilled artisans who have mastered traditional leatherworking techniques that have been passed down through generations. This includes hand-stitching, a labour-intensive process that ensures precision and durability, as well as a unique, personal touch in every item. The meticulous attention to detail is evident in the intricate stitching, carefully selected threads, and the flawless finishing of each product. This dedication to craftsmanship ensures that every item meets the highest standards of quality.

What is your advice to aspiring entrepreneurs?

Stay true the goals and ethos you set out in the beginning for the brand and keep going. There are times where it will be tough but believe in your vision enough to not give up and carry on.聽

What most excites you about pampeano?

pampeano supports a system of mentorship where experienced artisans, often referred to as master craftsmen, train the next generation. This ensures that traditional techniques, such as hand-stitching, leather cutting, and dyeing, are taught directly from skilled hands, preserving the authenticity and quality of the craftsmanship. pampeano is committed to supporting the communities from which its artisans come. By investing in these communities and valuing their cultural heritage, the brand helps to ensure that the traditional crafts are preserved within their original cultural context.

pampeano鈥檚 commitment to slow fashion means that there is less pressure on artisans to compromise on quality. The brand values the time and skill required to create each piece, which supports the continued use of traditional techniques.

How has the company evolved over the last couple of years?

pampeano was founded with a deep connection to the sport of polo, which is integral to Argentine culture, especially in the Pampas region. Initially, the brand focused on creating high-quality leather goods that catered to the needs of polo players. These early products were designed to meet the demands of the sport, providing durability, comfort, and style.

As pampeano grew, so did its reputation for quality. This led to an increasing demand for more specialised, high-performance polo equipment. While maintaining its strong presence in the polo world, pampeano began to diversify its product offerings. The brand expanded beyond technical equipment to include a wider range of leather accessories, such as belts and bags. These products retained the same commitment to quality and craftsmanship that had made the brand renowned in the polo community.

What can we hope to see from pampeano in the future?

pampeano鈥檚 growth has been exponential overseas with the European and American markets loving the products so we hope to see a continued global presence. We will also be launching a range of exciting new leather good styles this year too!
