Leather goods never had their Swiss chapter — HEIGS is writing it, a house born in Bern, alongside the makers we admire.
USM
USM Haller has furnished the world’s most considered interiors since 1965 — modular steel in that unmistakable cobalt blue. Like us, USM is from Bern. We brought our leather into its frame and carried it through SoHo, down Green Street and Grand, where the à New York finds the city it is named for.

Hanro has made the finest knitwear in Switzerland since 1884 — a byword for quiet, next-to-skin luxury. For their Summer 2026 campaign, A Breath of Travel, they carried HEIGS bags through the season’s imagery, placing Swiss handcraft at the centre of their vision.
Glarner Tüechli
Since 1828 the Glarner Tüechli — the red-printed kerchief of Glarus — has been one of Switzerland’s oldest textiles in continuous production. This autumn its printers create an accessories collaboration designed exclusively for HEIGS, arriving Autumn 2026.
Hanro — Eyes Wide Shot
A campaign reimagining Stanley Kubrick’s Eyes Wide Shut — the film in which Nicole Kidman wore Hanro, placing the house inside one of cinema’s most intimate moments. Shot in a 1920s villa on a hill in Piemonte, Italy, the narrative unfolds in quiet opulence, unveiling the HEIGS core collection.

The HEIGS University Scarf, made exclusively for us in Cambridge by Ryder & Amies, university outfitters since 1908. Pure Saxony wool, striped in the old manner, finished with a custom logo embroidery and a label of our own.
Billynou
We sent our linings to Billynou, a natural dye artist who turns plants and flowers into living colour. Cochineal, weld and madder are prepared; then the ice dyeing — petals and leaves pressed directly into the cloth. After steaming, the colours deepen into living patterns. Each fabric returns to our atelier, where the lining is hand-finished with zip, phone pocket and pouch.
Maison Pastis
A porcelain bag charm, hand-finished — a small object made to hang from a handle and outlast a season. Craft at the scale of a talisman. Another Swiss house, founded by Aline Julie — who, like us, comes from Bern.
In September 2025 we held a temporary pop-up in the famous arcades of the Jardin du Palais-Royal, Paris. Our pieces are stocked across Europe and North America.
