We are Frankie and Dawa, a creative duo based in Auckland, New Zealand. We design premium leather belts, wallets and apparel. Our journey began in early 2024, born out of a desire to revive the craftsmanship and detailing that has been lost in modern production and design. By Combining Dawa’s expertise in digital design, photography and videography with Frankie’s background in machining, toolmaking, and leatherwork, we combined the best of traditional skills with modern design technology. 

Our philosophy runs counter to the modern minimalism of today’s world, embracing distinctive patterns that transcend function, creating pieces of wearable art.
