Our Story
The beautiful childhood memories are considered one of the most
absolute richest memories. I truly believe that the warmth of these
moments has an impact in shaping our personalities. So right there,
from that spot in the corner of my memories, I recall my happiness
when my father gave me my first leather bag which I got attached to
deeply and until this moment, it is still imprinted in my heart and
memories.
I still reminisce about the smell of the leather and it’s fine touch, I
remember how the bag gave me confidence as if it was my source of
power.
From that moment, I turned my first dream to reality and a
distinguished brand that makes whoever has it, feel proud and happy
and through time, becomes its legacy.

OUR INSPIRATION
Each design has its own inspiration, so while I share this true story behind the designing of LAM’s bags, I recall a beautiful memory of me as a child spending hours playing with my mother’s leather bag.
I remember the marron leather, the metal lock and its sound when I opened it and it revealed her beautiful belongings, which to me, looked like treasure.
I used this memory in designing the metal lock of LAM’s bags, and adopted the warm classic colors which reminded me of the color of her precious bag. I could never forget its angles and shape that looked like a secret box.
And today, I am happy that such memories that are full of love have turned into a reality that I am greatly proud of, so that every owner of LAM’s bags can feel that bags carry memories, tales to be told, a legacy someday or could spread hope in their heart.
Our Leather
For LAM, we strived when choosing the quality of leather used for our bags. And we assert that the search journey for the high quality that meets our standard was one of difficult phases of the project.
Therefore, from that perspective, we launched the first collection by using vegetable-tanned leather, where leather can be turned into a useful product by using organic and natural material from bark, leaves and tree branches.
The vegetable-tanned leather contains a beautiful and distinctive wooden smell that is usually associated with leather. Each product made from this leather has a unique shade and difference.
The lack of consistency in color and tone is not a flaw, in fact, it is a sign of originality and a special quality of the natural tanning process.
The vegetable-tanned leather is well-known for its water resistance ability compared to the chrome-tanned leather. In addition, it is renewable over time and is environmentally friendly, as the material used is taken from plants and does not harm people in the long term.
