ABOUT
A Washington state transplant, Lincoln Heller came to Canada in 1995 to study at Emily Carr University of Art + Design as a photographer. While working in an Alaskan logging camp to finance his education, Lincoln fashioned leather pouches from worn-out logger's boots. This was the seed for the unique design aesthetic to come, and the evolution of the innovative brand.
