Designer spotlight: Loxley England

With a focus on clean lines, simplicity and timelessness, Loxley England is an English family business for the modern day. Building upon traditional values such as quality, craft, and enduring appeal, the duo behind the brand have injected both youth and finesse with sleek design and pops of colour. Loxley England is a brand that understands modern living and their bags are made with purpose in mind, created from the highest quality, full grain leather, which is flexible and durable; everything you want for your most hard working accessory.

But for this brand, functionality goes hand in hand with design, and materials are chosen not only to be long lasting, but to look beautiful too. With no synthetic top coat so as to retain all its original, natural traits, the leather will mature and produce a rich patina – each bag developing its own unique character over time.

The design process takes place in the Loxley studio based in the south of England, and quality comes into every element and decision; from the material choices and bespoke cutting, to the most luxurious zips possible. No detail is overlooked as this brand is well versed in refined style. With emphasis on superior leather production, each step of the manufacturing process is carefully considered and carried out by highly skilled craftspeople, using bespoke tools to ensure perfection.

Launching in 2015 their first collection caters for an eclectic mix of requirements; from holdall to iPad case, shopper to wallet, backpack to bowling bag; all essentials are covered and will fit seamlessly into the life of the modern woman. Transcending the ever-changing face of trends and fast fashion, a Loxley England piece is a lasting addition to your wardrobe that will see you through season after season. Their chosen colour palette is a lesson in mixing the classic with the current. Navy, black, red, and racing green sit side by side with striking colour blocks of yellow, grey and blue; perfect for any wardrobe, whether you’re looking for an understated staple or a stand out piece.

In another nod to luxury and English design legacy, their debut limited edition collection pieces are lined in beautiful Liberty Art Fabrics that have been handpicked to complement the union of tradition and modernity, which is key for this brand. Attention to detail and fierce eye for design are the cornerstones of Loxley England; rooted in heritage but their feet firmly planted in the present.
