Who We Are
Our Story
Hi everyone, welcome to our little shop. I am J, and the sole maker at Rein. All the products that you would see are designed and handcrafted by me in Singapore, a sunny island along the equator in South East Asia. My inspiration for Rein comes from my furry - K who is a Japanese Spitz. As a dog mom, I want high quality and stylish products that I could enjoy with my furry, and most importantly, unique!
Instead of selling products in that are created in the globalised mass production, what Rein hope to offer is personalised, handcrafted, quality pieces that would stand the test of time. Every single piece of product is made with love, dedication and much time to ensure that every work step is pawfectly executed.
Leather is a timeless material and the epitome of luxury. As leather is made from animal skins, each hide is different. Even within a hide, there would be differences in colours, textures and the blemishes. What's truly fascinating about full grain and top grain leather is that the leather product grows with the user. With time, each piece will have its own patina and develop thier own history and character. This makes no 2 leather pieces, even if they are made from the same hide, exactly the same!
Our Commitment
Sustainability
Rein is committed to be as environmentally friendly as we can. We choose to use leather from cows to the extent we can, which is a by-product of the food industry. Our flagship series, Buttero, is vegetable-tanned leather and it is biodegradable.
In addition, we do not use any plastic or unnecessary packaging. Further, we have created a Replacement and Refurbishment Program which helps to maximise the usage of all our products.
If you have any ideas on how we can be even more environmentally friendly, do drop us a note!
Replacement & Refurbishment Program
If our product unfortunately becomes damaged in any way, or if you have a change of mind in the colour, fret not, we are here to help.
Although cowhide is natural, if we simply throw away the products, they will only end up in landfills and increase the waste we produce without maximising the potential of the products.
Hence, we are bringing you our Replacement & Refurbishment Program:
Replacement Program
Let us know which part of the product you would like to replace. We will give you a quote and if agreeable, send us the product and we will replace and send it back to you. We will cover the local courier cost of return of the repaired product to you.
For international customers, we will deduct the cost of local Singapore domestic courier from the international shipping charge.
Please note that customers are to bear the cost of sending the product to us.
Refurbishment Program
Send your Rein products to us, and we will refurbish it for donation to shelters or upcycle the parts to make other products to be sold for charitable purposes.
In return, we will offer 10% credit based on the purchase price of your Rein product, which is usable on top of any promotions or vouchers.
If you own other brands’ products and would like to contribute to our cause, we will also refurbish or upcycle them for charitable purposes; however, we will not be offering any credit for non-Rein products.
This is one of the many ways we are fulfilling our goals towards a sustainable future.
