VISION
Aclea is a small craft company, craftsmen of responsible and transparent fashion.
Her creations are durable products by their quality and style.
Her accessories are designed to accompany you for a long time, if they are taken care of.
In an ideal of rational consumption, Aclea is a fervent follower of “Consume Less, Consume Better”.
LOCAL MANUFACTURING
All our bags and all our other creations are made in Germany.
To continue the travel here are some raw materials.
The natural material, leather is a by-product of the food industry. The leathers and skins we use come from South Africa. We use traditional African fabrics like wax and fabrics from all over the world.
Our partners adhere to our vision of a more responsible fashion, sustainable products at a price that remains accessible.
For years Aclea has developed a traditional know-how in its different areas of intervention. By making our products close to our consumers, we reduce the impact of the transportation of our products on the environment.
Our goal is to make quality, unique pieces and the Afro design World accessible. Know-how at a reasonable price level.
Live with our customers, we sell only online, without intermediaries, whose margins would increase the final selling price.
Unlike the traditional practices of the fashion industry, we apply a reasonable margin. Our price is fair and reflects the fair value of the product.
We do not practice sales, or seasonal promotions, which are against the habits of the fashion industry.
TRANPARENCY
Vertebral column of our responsible approach, transparency is for us a founding value: we make fashion differently, in the eyes of all. To share information is to allow everyone to choose, in all conscience. It is legitimately giving power to consumers. It is trusting in their just and informed judgment.
When purchasing an Aclea creation, the customer will receive a detailed product sheet.
The client can go to the workshop during opening hours.
Choosing to be a responsible brand was our first step to the road of transparency.
WORKSHOP / SHOP
Concerned about the environment in which we work and live, listening to our daily needs and achieving a goal of zero waste; Aclea has set up artistic creation workshops: Fashion & Decoration, with the aim of recovering - recreating - recycling and customizing unused fashion and decoration items.
In this workshop / shop specialized in craft creation, there are products and accessories, just like on the online store. Pouches, bags, cases and a large amount of scarves,... The collection is rich! Especially since the objects are of a high quality and therefore likely to accompany you a long time.
The offer does not stop there! The workshop also offers limited series and custom-made products, as well as a range of home accessories products such as lamps, cushions ... Workshops to learn how to develop your artistic gifts in a place of pleasure, travel, exchange and learning.
In other words, you can create custom objects that stick to your skin (no pun intended)!
WORKSHOP, RECOVERY AND CUSTOMIZATION
