The birth of our luxury leather jackets Made in France
Atelier Bertrand was born from a passion for beautiful leather pieces that become your friends and age with you over time.
I always wanted to realize this dream of wearing a luxury leather jacket but I found myself faced with a significant factor: the exorbitant prices charged by the big brands.
I had to go for second-hand jackets to be able to satisfy this desire, but it wasn't the jacket of my dreams.
An important point: color. The saying goes that it's important to have your first beautiful black leather jacket, but when you want to get a jacket in another color, the choice quickly becomes limited.
Starting from this frustration, I decided to take the path in reverse and create Atelier Bertrand, the concept that would have allowed me to design the jacket of my dreams when I was carrying out my research.
An anecdote: I met the founder of a company that supplies raw hides to tanneries. He told me: "Jérôme, there are three colors in leather: black, black, and black." So I had to find partners offering impeccable leather qualities and a wide choice of colors.
Following the desire to have the jacket in the color of my dreams, and after nearly two years of testing, I now have at my customers' disposal a choice of vibrant colors for all tastes from a French tannery working for the biggest luxury brands.
Each skin (leather) is selected and chosen by hand to guarantee exceptional quality and thus satisfy a demanding clientele.
We implement all the codes of luxury in each step of the exclusive creation of your piece and for a price much more accessible than all luxury brands.
So, our jackets are only 30% of the price of those from a luxury brand of equal quality and you also have the luxury of being able to create them to your tastes.
When you become the creator of your most beautiful leather jacket
Each piece is specially designed for you and according to your tastes.
To do this, I operate on a pre-order, or “made-to-order” system , which we manage together by email or during a personalized meeting.
The price aspect was essential. As mentioned at the very beginning, for the same quality, these jackets cost between €3,000 and €4,000. Thanks to this pre-order system, we remove all the additional expenses and you get what a high-quality leather jacket really costs with the luxury of being able to customize it.
