Metropolitans Paris

Metropolitans story started eight years ago.
We are Nour & Hassen, a couple of young executives that live in a high paced corporate environment and enjoy traveling across the world.

We traveled together in 20 countries and discovered breathtaking landscapes and beautiful views. During all of our trips, we were obsessed with 4 main patterns:
1. Authenticity: we wanted to live authentic experiences with local residents of each country, village, the island we went to. We always privileged local houses/resorts over hotel chains and wanted to live with the local community
2. Uniqueness: we wanted to have a unique souvenir of each place we went to. We did not hesitate to purchase local artworks, souvenir in order to keep the memory of the instant we lived
3. Quality over quantity: we want our experience to be qualitative and not quantitative. As such, we always preferred taking a small amount of clothing/goods with us or having a short stay rather than staying for a longer time and have tour guide after tour guide with no meaning of what we did.
4. Sustainability: Our products are designed in authentic leather that has been selected as a by-product of meat.
We are also strong advocates of the ecological transition and will offset our international shippings.
We are also empowering women designers and manufacturers around the world by getting them into our platform.

During these travels, we figured our that authentic, qualitative and unique leather goods we use were our best allies during these journeys

These 4 values are at the core of what we want to share with our community at Metropolitans Paris. As such, we created Metropolitans, a brand of authentic unique and qualitative hand made leather goods for everyday and travel use.
