Nitmoi creates functional and stylish leather goods for everyday use.

About the Maker
Founder and product designer Johannes started Nitmoi out of frustration that products break so quickly. “I felt it was necessary to think about products that do have a long lifespan – properly designed with sustainable materials and locally produced. That’s how Nitmoi started with the wallet, since my own wallet broke every time!” Based on this practical and sustainable necessity – Necessity Is The Mother Of Invention (Nitmoi) – Johannes designs and makes all products himself.

Production process & Sustainability
All products are made locally in Johannes’ studio in Utrecht. We only work with eco-friendly Italian vegetable tanned leather, which is purchased from a leather supplier in the Netherlands. Johannes uses a specially developed CNC cutting process, which allows him to create complex designs. The designs are designed in such a way that virtually no stitching or glue is involved. Everything is folded in a special Nitmoi way from one piece of leather, which benefits the lifespan of the product.

“It is an efficient production process and this is partly why production can take place here in the Netherlands and I can offer the products for an affordable price. The designs are timeless and the leather only becomes more beautiful with age; it develops a characteristic patina and will last use to get a unique look.”
