Smollism
Self-Fulfillment & Environmentally Friendly
Typically, bags may become unusable due to damage, as their manufacturing principles did not originally consider repair or recycling. As a result, they often become difficult waste and give rise to many environmental problems.
The Studio Smoll product concept is to allow consumers to experience the fun of assembling leather goods themselves through a folding method, and then enjoy the rich texture of natural leather. The assembly process only requires the use of a special patented incision structure and does not use chemicals such as needles, glue, nor require the purchase of additional professional tools or courses. This easy-to-assemble product concept enables consumers to purchase individual parts to repair damaged bags. Even if they are no longer used, the product can be easily dismantled like during assembly, and all materials can be decomposed and recycled. Environmental friendliness is the core value of our brand.
Three Key Elements of Smollism
The innovative patented cut is the key to Smollism's ability to produce leather bags without the need for needles and adhesives. It has obtained patents in many countries, including Taiwan, China, the United States, the European Union, and Japan, and won the 2020 German iF Design Award for its novelty. The interlaced cuts are applied to a single piece of leather, considering the correct assembly guidance and the two major advantages of fully retaining the toughness of the vegetable-tanned leather. Its durability has been verified in various bag styles sold over the past few years.
Vegetable-tanned leather refers to the tanning agent used in the leather-making process (for anti-corrosion purposes), which is derived from natural plants. The process is quite lengthy and time-consuming, so vegetable-tanned leather is priced higher in the leather market and its popularity is far lower than that of chromium-tanned leather, which is suitable for mass production. The tough and stiff characteristics of vegetable-tanned leather are perfectly matched with the three-dimensional structure of Smollism's folding molding, and its ability to truly present the texture of leather and its natural and environmentally friendly appeal is consistent with Smollism's original intention. Therefore, Studio Smoll insists on using Italian imported natural vegetable-tanned leather.
Hardware components have always been regarded as the soul of leather goods. Smoll's hexagonal screws are different from the mass-produced screws that are typically forged at high speed. Each screw we provide is a "custom-made" product that is cut and machined from a solid piece of 304 stainless steel. In order to achieve Smollism's goal of being able to assemble with just hands, we have set the torque and pitch of the screws very differently from regular M6 screws and have very demanding machining requirements for the tightness between the screws and the partner parts (nuts). All of this is only to let users experience excellent hand feel and enjoy the entire assembly process.
