Creating quality products that stand the test of time with a fine regard to detail, that is the vision of the popular bag and accessories label Herschel Supply.
What started as a project seven years ago by brothers Jamie and Lyndon Cormack out of their love for travel and the outdoors now became a global sensation. Herschel Supply bags are known for its charismatic laidback vintage-inspired silhouettes coupled with contemporary details, striking a perfect mix of heritage and modern sensibilities.
Herschel Supply introduced rcently its Spring/Summer 2016 (SS16) line at Makati Garden Club, drawing from the spirit of this season’s sun drenched discoveries of leisure and natural beauty. This energetic seasonal offering marries bountiful colors, prints and material stories all captured in a wide range of bag, travel, accessories and headwear silhouettes. A retreat to experience the calming ocean breeze as it skims across the waves towards a tropical paradise, that’s the inspiration behind this season’s unique offerings.

Herschel Supply’s highest volume tote, the Bamfield, joins the Point as welcomed additions to the SS16 line.

Exploring Kindness
The event is also a fund raising partnership between Herschel Supply and Makati Garden Club (MGC) as part of both brands’ CSR efforts. The proceeds from the event will be extended to charitable institutions that will help send less fortunate kids to school. MGC was started by a small group of plant lovers and is now the pioneer and leader in plant care and gardening in the country. It has continuously supported different fund-raising and livelihood projects to give back to the Filipino community.
