About Us
Our Story
Coeur is a purpose-driven leather goods company that exists to elevate the standard of luxury through responsibility, traceability, and intention. We prioritize ethically sourced materials, thoughtful local production, and minimizing our impact at every step.
We create products that honor the planet and its inhabitants, elevate everyday life, and invite a more meaningful relationship between people, their belongings, and the stories behind them.
In today’s world, the connection between consumer and product has become increasingly distant, shaped by complex global supply chains and opaque industry practices that leave people disconnected from how and where their items are made. We aim to close that gap by offering products that can be traced back to farm level, as well as providing insight into our sourcing, production, and post-purchase care.
We take pride in partnering with incredible American businesses at every step of our supply chain. We work with American farmers, tanneries, manufacturers, and more.
The name Coeur derives from founder Deanna Crevecoeur’s name and translates to heart in French. It represents the love and intention that goes into each design, and the love for our planet. Her hope is that anyone wearing Coeur feels connected to the conscious process of crafting these products.
The company is based in Connecticut and all products are manufactured in New York City.
