OUR STORY
Upcycled Leather Products & Accessories
A Journey into a new
purpose for Leather scraps
Merake was born from a desire to do something driven by our soul, creativity and love. A dream to create something unique from leather waste, that is otherwise destined for landfill.
​
Our mission is to bring new purpose to leather waste. What once was a flap, now is a new part, what once was waste now is fashion.
​
We give scrap leathers a new purpose, transforming waste into usable products (leather goods, bags and shoes).
Simona Tanning have partnered with Merake to make this vision a reality.
Through continuous innovation in design and development, and with sustainability an unflinching priority, together we can make strides for a better tomorrow.
​
Our work ways:​
​
-
Merake unique collection;
-
Partnering with and representing companies that help develop products from waste.
-
Developing promotion gifts for companies or business.
​
As we grow and move forward to the future Merake goal is to start producing these products in poor community/village in Asia, not just helping with the wastes problems and remaining conscious of sustainability but also giving a chance to these people to have an income and a better life as we thrive to build a better tomorrow.

Giving Back
More than turning Merake into a reality, we also want to give-back to society in some way.
So we have chosen 4 (of 17) UN Sustainable Developments Goals that support hunger, education, clean water & helping empower women around the world.
We decide to direct contribute by partnering with the following organizations: Daughters of Cambodia, Handa, Charity: Water, UNDP: Zero Hunger. We vow to continuously incorporate practices in line with these directives as we work for a better future.
