More about Watson & Wolfe

Founded in 2017, by Helen Farr-Leander who began her career at Aspinal of London where she developed a passion for leather goods.

Like many people, Helen believed that leather was a by-product of the meat industry. When she discovered the industry was causing unimaginable suffering to animals, polluting land and water and damaging human health, Helen realised she needed to rethink everything, and so, Watson & Wolfe became the first British luxury vegan accessories brand for men.

Helen's vision was to create a brand which adds value to the world, by educating consumers and delivering excellence to challenge perception and bring about
a change in how we view and buy leather goods.

The Watson & Wolfe collection is made using innovative future materials which bridge the gap between animals derived leather goods and fully sustainable accessories.

In 2020, Watson & Wolfe launched their first collection for women which includes purses and handbags.
