About Me

Booshie BagZ are handmade with love using traditional Cordwainers skills with a contemporary twist. Booshie bespoke bagz are made to order for a specific customer made from 100% Leather which is sewn with extreme attention to detail and finish, often using time-consuming, hand-executed techniques.

BOosHiE BagZ is one of the latest fashion trends to hit the U.K. but it doesn't stop there. It's all about a lil' positivity which we love. Not only are these new bags hot they come with a cause and meaning.

"its a new concept in urban fashion accessories a conscious brand of 'Fashion against Youth Violence' as in the UK it was reported by the British home office that 72 of our youth were murdered in 2008 and over 40 youths have been brutally murdered in 2009 and the numbers are rising. The aim for the brand is to open a creative studio......

The Booshie studio will be the heart of the brand a space oozing with young enthusiastic creative people and producing beautiful British handmade accessories, using traditional Cordwainers skills (traditional handbag making skills, which are dying out in the UK). It will be the centre point where hard work, discipline and social values will be practiced through fashion; engaging with young people in the community and beyond.
