About Moore & Giles:

As experts in leather, Moore & Giles CEO Sackett Wood and President Tray Petty spent decades sourcing and developing the finest leather. Their deep appreciation for craftsmanship set a high bar—one they couldn’t find in travel goods. So in 2007, they set out to change that.

What began with reimagining luggage has grown into a collection designed for every part of life. From bags to furniture to home goods, each piece reflects the same dedication to quality that has defined Moore & Giles since 1933.
