SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 26, 2013 – Some of the most innovative and successful companies in the world are those that solve a problem. Patrick Martin and Giampaolo Marino are doing just that.
Spurred by a desire to provide women with the perfect accessory, the pair founded Martin Marino, a revolutionary luxury brand that allows clients to customize fine Italian leather handbags.
Martin Marino melds fashion with technology and enables each client to create a custom handbag that fits her individual style. Using a one-of-a-kind platform, a client can select the various elements of the handbag, including the handle, hardware, leather and more, to create a bag that’s distinctively her. Each Martin Marino handbag is then constructed from sustainable leather by experienced Italian craftsmen who ensure that every design is unique and environmentally friendly.
In addition to offering custom luxury handbags, Martin Marino is also an advocate for aspiring designers. The company offers designers the opportunity to launch their own line of luxury handbag, earn royalties, and expand their personal brand followings. Through this unique program, designers who meet the criteria have access to Martin Marino’s online platform, as well as its Italian artisans and high-quality leathers and materials.
In an effort to gain support for their revolutionary new brand, Martin Marino is running a Kickstarter campaign from Nov. 1 to Dec. 11, 2013. With less than two weeks left in the campaign, the company is just $2,300 from meeting its goal. Backers who support Martin Marino’s Kickstarter can select from several luxury leather accessories, including two limited-edition Martin Marino handbags.
