KarlenSwiss Hand-Made Bags in Hong Kong

A new trend is emerging... KarlenSwiss represented by Swiss House Shop in Hong Kong is driving a new fashion trend among the ladies and gentlemen seeking to make a fashion statement in the city.

Everything began in 1951, when Titus Karlen founded his boot making saddlery in the earthy mountain village Törbel in the Canton Valais and laid the foundation to this successful family-owned company. He knew how to handle a clobber’s hammer and made himself a name beyond the reaches of his village for quality products such as hand-made shoes, cow bells, horse’s harnesses, belts, accessories as well as military articles. Like father, like son. In good family tradition the son Hans-Jörg also learned the shoe-making craft and orthopedist trade. In 2000, together with his wife Yvonne, he took over the saddlery from his father Titus. Since then a lot has changed in the workshop.

As a responsible enterprise KarlenSwiss employs around 10 local workers in the atelier. A truly great team of women, who carry-on and live the company philosophy. Here the word “TEAM” has a unique meaning, then as soon as one enters the “holy” manufacturing halls, one can literally sense the harmony. Each production step really happens hand-in-hand. Be that thru family-relationship or friendship between employees, everything happens together, the smiling, the crafting, and the creating.

Among the many fashion products from KarlenSwiss you may find a vast range of ladies' and gentlemen bags, accessories and apparel. All hand-made in Switzerland the products include leather goods, but also a vast range of materials used in the Swiss Military, the Swiss Postal Services, and the Swiss Railway system.

KarlenSwiss truly is making a fashion statement also in Hong Kong.
