At Roj, we design our bags keeping women at the forefront & centre of the process. We access their daily rituals and habits and craft bags that will serve them reliably every day. Let me take you on a personal journey through our design process, where every detail is crafted with you in mind.
Our Concept
The idea for the core collection was to create a well-edited collection of timeless, multipurpose pieces that are tried, tested, and perfected over time. That’s the vision that drove us when we started designing our core collection in March 2023. The collection includes a versatile tote for work and travel, an elevated shoulder bag for everyday use, and a chic top-handle bag for those special evening occasions.
Our Details
We know how hectic your life can be, and that’s why we obsess over the details. Picture this: front pockets for quick access to your essentials, luggage sleeves that make travelling a breeze, and multiple compartments to keep you organized. These are the non-negotiables we built into our designs. We wanted to blend functionality with timeless style, creating bags that are as practical as they are polished.
Our Material
When it comes to materials, we don’t compromise. We use top-grain Nappa leather, sourced from a gold-rated Leather Working Group (LWG) certified tannery in Chennai. This certification ensures that the leather production process is environmentally friendly. Plus, by using leather hides that are byproducts of the meat industry, we contribute to waste reduction, making our bags as sustainable as they are stylish. Even our packaging is made from recycled corrugated cardboard, and your bags come in organic cotton dustbags.
Our People
Our bags are brought to life in a family-owned workshop in Kolkata, a place where tradition meets modern craftsmanship. This workshop, with over three decades of experience, adheres to the highest labour, health, and safety standards. Each bag undergoes a meticulous nine-month design-to-launch process, ensuring that every piece meets our exacting standards.
The Final Touch: Quality and Care
Before any Roj bag reaches your hands, it undergoes rigorous testing and quality checks. We believe in small-batch production, ensuring each piece receives the attention it deserves. This commitment to quality means that when you carry a Roj handbag, you’re carrying a piece of our dedication and craftsmanship.
