1993年秋、3名の仲間が集まり独創的で質の高い皮革ベルトの製造販売を志して、東神田佐衛門橋の際、10坪の狭い事務所から最初の一歩を踏み出した。
コンセプトは会社設立時と同様、『独創的で質の高い皮革ベルト創り。』まずは、ベルトに適した革素材として皮革探しの旅から始まった。皮革といっても多くは靴、バック用の皮革が主流。ベルト皮革専門の革と出会うことは容易ではなかったが、ヨーロッパで探し求めていた究極の皮革との出会いを果たす。当時その皮革は日本で入手困難な状態であったが、惚れ込んだあまり、自社で輸入をしようと決意。こうして皮革の輸入業務にも着手した。
現在、皮革の仕入れはイタリア産の皮革を中心としてヨーロッパ全土からベルト専門皮革を輸入し皮革販売も行っている。
(The birth stories of our company and of the original label.)
Autumn 1993, three fellows gathered up and made the first step to produce original and nice leather belts in a small office near Saemonbashi Bridge, Higashi-kanda, in central Tokyo. This is the beginning of "WINS FACTORY"
Our brand is based on the concept of producing original and high-quality belts, which has not changed since the establishment of our company, 1993.
At first we started searching materials, the leather, which suit for making belts. It was not so easy to find the one, as most of the leather was mainly used for shoes or bags. We had finally met the ideal one at a leather wholesaler's exhibition in Asakusa and we found that it was from Italy. At first we had no thought to import the leather directly, however, decided to start importing by ourselves, as it was rare a kind to find in Japan and the leather wholesaler has limited assorted leather. That is how we started to be involved in importing leather.
Today, the leather we are dealing with is mainly from Italy, and we also sell leather especially for belt.
