Property Of … Store Opening Germany

Property Of… is one of THE upcoming Labels worldwide when it comes to sustainable, stylish bags and accessories especially for men.

Not only because they were one of my favorite clients for a couple of years, it is also because I still love the products and the retail concept in general. The only thing missing was a store more close to me. Last week the brand started a new chapter in Germany. Property Of.. opened the doors for a new store in Hamburg. It is located on the lively Poststrasse just outside the Hanse Viertel and the interior still reflects the old cafe style that you are used to in a new jacket. The new jacket adds an extra spark and makes it a varicoloured, inviting and inventive place.The special retail concept of Property Of… is that you can enjoy a freshly made cup of coffee to drink while shopping around or take a seat on the bar counter while socialising. The coffee that is served by welcoming staff comes from a local organic coffee roaster. While this service is completely free of charge, guests are invited to donate money to Hamburger Tafel, a local Hamburg charity that gives food to the homeless.

A brief history about the brand

Property Of… was founded in 2006 by two designers Peter Teo & Richard Chamberlain. Having met whilst studying together in London and worked in New York, a fine bags and accessories brand was thus born.

Their goal was to provide an alternative to the classic full leather briefcase. Drawing inspirations from Asian cultures & Western traditions, they combine the best of both worlds with a clean & timeless aesthetic, targeting at men & women with contemporary urban lifestyles.The name Property Of… was selected as an understated and non-label label, as a way to simply refer to the unique identity of each bag’s owner. Through its use of our signature leather ID tags, labeling is functional and present while remaining understated. A consistent focus of Property Of… is making timeless and functional products. Waxed canvas, denims, heavy duty nylons are just some of the materials used. Leather details, customizable ID tags and sturdy hardware complete the Property Of… look.

The official Store opening took place last wednesday and a lot of good old friends and publishers took the chance to take a glimpse…
