TEO+NG – Parisian-Handcrafted Leather Bags & Avant-Garde Accessories

EXPLORE THE INTRICATE WORLD OF TEO+NG

TEO+NG is a Paris-based leather atelier, crafting handmade bags and accessories rooted in saddlery tradition and a dark, avant-garde aesthetic. Founded in 2011, the brand reimagines leather craft through sculptural design, meticulous handwork and small-batch production — producing bags, belts, harnesses, cuffs and other accessories designed to age beautifully and stand the test of time.

Each TEO+NG piece embodies a balance between rigorous structure and functional wearability. Whether crossbody bags, harness vests, belt pouches or cuffs — the emphasis lies on material integrity, architectural form and lasting quality rather than fast-fashion ephemerality.

ORIGINS & PHILOSOPHY: SADDLERY ROOTS, LEATHER CRAFT & NON-SEASONAL DESIGN

TEO+NG draws direct inspiration from traditional saddlery and the world of medieval harnesses — a heritage that informs its aesthetic and construction philosophy.

The brand commits to vegetable-tanned leather, handcrafted production in France and small-batch runs — rejecting fast cycles and mass manufacturing. Each item is intended as a long-term companion, evolving over time with the wearer and forming a personal history through use and patina.

TEO+NG sees accessories not as fleeting fashion add-ons, but as wearable architecture — objects of identity, function and expression; accessories with substance, depth and character.

DESIGN LANGUAGE: SCULPTURAL LEATHERWORK, HARNESS AESTHETIC & TIMELESS FUNCTIONALITY

The core aesthetic and design traits of TEO+NG include:

• architectural forms and harness-inspired construction — belts, body harness bags, structured waistbags and cuff harnesses
• monochrome, dark minimalism — black and muted tones reinforcing an austere, underground identity
• high-quality vegetable-tanned leather — chosen for durability, rich texture and patina evolution
• hand-crafted detail — stitched seams, intentional finishing, hammered hardware and thoughtful closures
• functionality and comfort — sculptural pieces engineered for real-world wearability

The overall effect: leather accessories that don’t just complement an outfit — they define it, offering a bold yet restrained visual signature.

CRAFT & PRODUCTION ETHOS: HANDMADE IN FRANCE, SUSTAINABLE & BUILT FOR LONGEVITY

TEO+NG accessories are entirely handmade in France. By utilising vegetable-tanned leather and traditional saddlery techniques, the brand prioritises natural materials, ethical sourcing and durability.

Products are released in small quantities, underscoring the brand’s commitment to timelessness and sustainability. Rather than chasing trends, each piece is meant to evolve with the wearer — not look new for one season, but age gracefully for years.

WHO TEO+NG SPEAKS TO: MINIMALISTS, AVANT-GARDE GENTLEMEN & MODERN NOMADS

TEO+NG resonates with people who:

• value true leather craftsmanship and artisanal production
• seek timeless pieces with depth and expressive material integrity
• appreciate functional design with conceptual weight
• gravitate toward dark minimalism and understated identity
• build wardrobes as personal expression rather than trend response

For Orimono, TEO+NG enriches the curated selection with a brand standing at the crossroads of craftsmanship, conceptual design and durable minimalism.
