ATP Atelier has been a pioneer in stylish leather footwear and handbags since 2011. The business is owned by friends and seeks to combine premium Italian craftsmanship with Scandinavian minimalism and a Parisian attitude. The Spring/Summer 2018 collection boasts luxuriously high-fashion silhouettes that are a product handcrafted from "fine leathers, suede and snake, both real and printed." In addition, ATP Atelier stands behind the production of its leather footwear and goods by supporting local Italian shoe makers in their craft through fair wages and humane conditions.
From a sustainability perspective, the luxe label uses vegetable-tanned leather "as much as possible and whenever applicable." ATP Atelier creates a sustainable and lasting product that will not only amp up one's leather footwear game, but will also ensure that a consumer doesn't need to purchase new sandals for a long time.
