ABOUT
SEEL is committed to providing top quality American-made products to those who seek individuality (and functionality) in their accessories. We believe your accessories should be a definition of yourself - for the uncommon. We strive to push the boundaries of high end accessories by offering alternative designs. .
Who are we?
Owned and operated by Jamie Seel, the company takes an unwavering stand against fast-fashion and fixates on quality design, craftsmanship, ethics, and local American production. SEEL ventures to offer designs that transcend the conventional and maintain local and ethical production.
What Makes Us Different?
All of our leather is produced entirely in the US (Pennsylvania, to be exact) in one of the oldest tanneries in the country, Wickett and Craig. While most leather is tanned with harmful chemicals such as chromium, the leather we use is tanned using natural plant based agents. This process takes much more time but is not harmful to the environment or those working in the tannery. This creates a higher cost in our products but we believe sustainability is worth it.
Where are our products made?
Our products are designed, patterned, sampled, and produced by hand in a small workshop in Columbus, Ohio. We believe firmly in ethical All-American production where craftspeople are paid fair wages for their skills, and work in a comfortable workshop environment.
We strive to educate our customers on the horrific reality of "fast fashion" that has been made popular by low price points, but reflects unsustainable, unethical, and often inhumane methods of production overseas. Our products showcase exemplary quality ensured by talented artisans. The maker revolution is gaining momentum, and SEEL contributes to this movement by sourcing from as many Columbus and Ohio-based businesses as possible.
