FROM NEW YORK WITH LOVE xx MACKENZIE83

    

 

 

Sustainable, Small Batch + Made to Order

 

  

BECAUSE ETHICAL MANUFACTURING MATTERS

 

It is our responsibility to grow with sustainability. Through research, may we develop better alternatives, and not just use marketing to disguise plastic.

   

    

MADE WITH LOVE

   

From NY, with love -- the heart of the 83 studio.

The MacK bag is made for stylish women who are looking for authentic silhouettes, that are both modern and ethical. Each bag and clothing item, is cut and sewn right outside of NYC. Because our bags are made locally, custom opportunities are always available -- inquire about custom orders.

All 83 clothing is made to order, or created in limited collection releases. This eliminates waste and minimizes our carbon footprint. MacKenzie83 is dedicated to innovation in women’s laidback streetwear and handbag styles while maintaining focus on ethical manufacturing. The 83 girl feels confident in knowing her style was made with the planet and people in mind.

MacKenzie83 considers the impacts of the fashion industry and the impact it has on the environment. Every effort is made to reduce waste in all steps of our production process. Our designs are centered on salvage/recycled denim, chemical free leather, and leather that is directly the result of the free-range meat industry. All textile and leather scraps are recycled or repurposed to eliminate waste. As well as using recycled metal hardware.

 

 

Our leather comes from local and domestic tanneries that hold the highest of standards. We make all of our styles in New York. <3

WHERE LEATHER COMES FROM MATTERS

 A note on the Farm to Arm® Collection: 

This collection was made to not support factory farming, using leather bi-product from local free-range family owned farms in Virginia and New York. This vegetable-tanned leather is made without the use of harmful chemicals, free from polyurethanes (plastic), chrome or heavy metals, formaldehyde and other known dangerous chemicals. All colors and dyes are from natural and non-toxic sources.
