The Secret Town Luxury Brands DON'T Want You to Know ...

I was invited into the secret town in Spain, where luxury houses love to make their leather goods.
Who would have known my bag cutting would get me here... and why is it that these houses don't like to talk about Ubrique?

I find people have been brainwashed to believe that luxury means logo. When in fact it is the materials that are used and the craftsmanship that creates luxury.

[@popocucu7749]

Many paid higher for logo rather than craftmanship

[@bethanyanderson1745]

Yes, today, logos are indeed desired bc of ego. However, don't you think logos were originally sought-after bc they represented skillfull workmanship?

[@mayl4152]

@@bethanyanderson1745they were initially sought after for their quality and craftsmanship at a way lower price - look up how cheap Hermes was at the start. Nowadays it’s paying for the brand instead of the quality (Chanel bag quality is going downhill and I can attest to that, I can get waaaay better leather goods at Japan and other places from traditional leather craftsmen)

[@Satin311]

Well I look at as people do think logos equal luxury and I also look at it as some people just like the logo design and they can afford it so they indulge

[@nikajazz6226]

@@popocucu7749I totally agree

[@giannas1096]

I don’t mind paying these people the money they deserve for their brilliant craftsmanship. The problem is that the luxury brands are charging ridiculous prices and keeping most of it. I’m sure they’re not paying these craftsmen what they deserve. Excellent video, thank you Tanner.

[@mochacoffee101]

The crazy thing too though, is that on top of that, the luxury brands aren’t really providing quality items anymore. The quality for Chanel, Louis Vuitton and more, are not great. Yet their price increases so frequently.

[@camiliafuentes3509]

@@tanner.leatherstein My hope is that Ubrique can come out of the shadows on the global scale that luxury brands have. I'd rather buy direct than pay for branding. The luxury brands abandoned the town in crisis so the only fair outcome is for them to create an independent industry comprised of their own brands without a middleman. With the support of those with a platform such like yourself, they can reach the quality minded consumers who would support them in droves. Let's make "Made in Ubrique Spain" as known and respected as the Made in Italy label. They deserve to receive credit for their expert craftsmanship.

[@dd-dd2co]

Can we travel there to get these craftsman to make bags and other leather goods for us individually?

I know that you usually tear down bags and reveal where corner-cutting and price inflation occurs, but I love the idea of you finding artisans or companies that still do fantastic quality work. I know very little about leatherworking, but I enjoy seeing dedicated people practicing their craft.

I’m Scottish and maintaining traditional skills like this is priceless. You’re right they are vulnerable, thank you for raising their profile. If the town became its own plc and launched a brand in its own name I’m pretty sure they’d wipe the competition. And create a legacy for generations to come.

[@Ckawauchi35]

When I was growing up in my country, there was a special town known for its leather goods including shoes, bags, and accessories. Everyone knew about it and everyone went there to buy quality workmanship, even the tourists. I left the country in the late 70s when the town was still booming but I never found out how or when it met its demise. The town is no longer known for its leather reputation and nobody made any leather products anymore. Yes, it's sad.

[@whatsilviadid3993]

Im Spanish and this is not news to us. Ubrique has the best craftsmanship of leather. The reason is the whole town is working on this craft and skills are transferred from family members. Many big brands will make orders of the samples of the bags to Ubrique which are the most difficult to make and then send the sample bag to Asia to replicate. They are all small family factories, not big corporations and it is very secretive because they must sign non disclosure agreements with the brands. If every bag they made for big brands had the made in Ubrique or made in Spain seal, then buyers wouldnt be looking for made in france tags lol

I wonder if there is a way to make this town famous for their leather craftsmenship again but in their own terms. It makes me so angry that these companies came and took advantage of their talent to then leave them struggling afterward

[@xoxoez]

This is partly why I only buy preowned luxury bags. I refuse to give these companies NEW (more) money. Vintage bags are of better quality. And these companies have really just gotten as rotten as any other major corporation. The other reasons why I buy vintage or preowned bags are for cost and the environment. I’m blessed to not have financial constraints but I refuse to pay bogus retail prices to help pay for someone’s rent or to bolster the false scarcity nonsense. As for the environment, fashion is one of the highest industrial polluters. I just can’t reconcile purchasing things that destroy the natural world. Preowned is premade. The damage done. I also only have two luxury bags now. I used to have 50+. I wish more people really thought about what is behind a bag.

[@VashtiPerry]

Part of the problem I’d globalization creates laws on how to pay these people. There are limits that are supposed to stop local inflation… then of course there is direct to consumer issues when trying to maintain a brand. Sure they have signed nda and other legal things.

I think the secret ingredient is community. When you have a critical mass of artisans together, they can learn from each other. They are competing but they also know the value of competing against each other but also together against the world. We saw the same thing in Silicon Valley, for example, for about 50 years. We saw the same thing with wine growing regions.

Loewe is discontinuing its iconic Puzzle bag and will start pushing the Puzzle Edge because the latter is less complex to make (therefore after faster crafting > faster it gets on the store shelves).

The big brands are known to hire bag making in Spain and Portugal, specialy in areas used to working with leather (shoe making regions, moastly). In many of this areas, pepople made the leather goods in their own homes...as a family. So, the younger ones learned from parents and grandparents, and together, everyone contributed for the house income... not a lot of money, but it helped. The brands still hire their goods from portugal and spain, nowadays, but today i believe everything is a bit more professional😅 still, the big brands and incorporating our tradicional culture in their fashion pieces, like Burel, Bilros lace, Viana embroidery and many more

[@Demi1369]

What a beautiful story! It’s my first video I’ve ever come across of this channel. I hope this does bring awareness and help the town. 💕

[@manuelaa1530]

This was a fantastic mini doc, thanks so much for this! Would be great to watch another doc on where the poor quality luxury products are made 👀

[@mightymai2060]

Thank you sooo much for being an advocate! I truly admire the craftsmanship behind every leather bag! Wish the same thing would be given much attention to our local handmade bags here in the Philippines. I really admire your channel and I am very glad I came across it! Im no expert in such things but it has helped me gain knowledge and educated me most especially that I am starting up hand-painted bags business. It is related, and while browsing through researching things, I came across yoru channel. THANK YOU SO MUCH!

[@mightymai2060]

OMG you replied! :) Thank you so much! I honestly dont know much about leather and your channel helps me a lot. I just love to paint and like I said started to do painting on handbags for customization and such! Thank you so much! You really made my day!@@tanner.leatherstein

This was FABULOUS! I would love a bag with The Girl With the Pearl Earring sewn on it like that, stunning! That town is so talented and so beautiful! More please!

Thank you so much, Tanner, for this amazingly truthful and insightful video.

[@Snowfox23]

Amazing! This ppl deserve all the praise for their great work

[@tracyhendenshott7119]

Best video yet, and beautifully filmed.

[@intuitivereaderrosa2067]

The incredible part is that you discovered the part of patience. Patience is an important part of life. Thank you for taking the time to show us such a beautiful art and place that many luxury brands were hiding. Hopefully now there will be more recognition of the town and the artists that create these beautiful bags.

Fantastic story! Will keep following you for more such treasured stories. ❤

[@trina6256]

Wonderful video…. I love that technique and consistency are prized! What an amazing place. To be a master at anything takes time …patience … and the desire to be true to the craft! Thank you for the glimpse!!

[@jomni]

[@calibutnotsocal]

Thank you for this great content! I was hooked until the very end ❤

[@JeyFreeze]

Wow ! That’s absolutely brilliant!!

[@wendymoss4817]

My wishes for them all are great! I love craftsman who take pride in their work and am astounded at the number of people who pay for labels above actual craft and good materials. Thanks 👏👏👍🏻🌟

Thank you dear for taking us along. Can't wait what the *esluxscom* queen picked up at Fendi

The beauty of Spain and their craftsmanship

[@hermione5330]

Thank you for the video on Ubrique! Wow I didn’t know it’s this guarded over there, it’s really interesting.

@@tanner.leatherstein Wonderful 💜

[@ErnestCarroll-rt7gi]

And YES, The *yutulux* Tote! I have in Candy Pink and I've been rocking my "Barbie" bag all summer. Yay!

[@deadliza2034]

Every video you create is a work of art and a fountain of knowledge . . Bravo!

[@AugustusRoss421]

Your closet is simple a dream! Not just the *yutulux* bags but the ready to wear that you have is absolutely stunning

[@chaton20]

Great documentary! Very insightful. I’d love to visit Ubrique one day just to see the artisanship.

[@lianadibiase6841]

That is great content, the craftsmanship of product’s explains a lot. I hope you put a light on this town. 😀

[@PaperChess]

Thank you for sharing this with us!

[@katasticone]

You are the James Hoffman of leather. That is the highest compliment I can pay someone on this channel. This was fascinating. .Thank you!

[@lanabanana4752]

You did such an amazing job tanner thank you. With this knowledge it only makes sense, it is no wonder the quality has decreased since now knowing that so many luxury brands have moved out of the town.

[@RachaelNalumu]

I looooved watching this video! Leather and amazing craftsmanship is so exciting

[@linlee5162]

Beautiful, amazing, great content, thanks for posting 💖

[@michellegroetaers4397]

Absolutely amazing content, thank you so much!!!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@StanleyPerry329]

His *yutulux* tote is beautifully colored, very sturdy and the perfect size. Not too small, not too big. I look forward to joining my rotation.

[@gcorrales]

Such a beautiful video and message, loved it

[@theemporium5899]

I enjoyed this video. When we see a luxury brand logo we expect it to be exceptional quality yet the hands behind its construction is the legacy we need to learn about.
