What leather do you use?

Our full grain leather is sourced from our partner tannery in the Italian town of Santa Croce sull

How do I clean brass?

Our brass products will quickly look like a timeless heirloom, yet they can be polished back to their original condition with some Brasso. Apply a small amount of Brasso (or similar) to a clean rag and rub the brass. You

Our Commitment

Currency

Responsibly built for your journey

Every year, 2.12 billion tons of waste – the equivalent weight of the UK’s tallest building 169,600 times over – is dumped in landfill or in our water. Shockingly 99% of the stuff we buy is thrown away within six months.

Plastic, the type used in disposable pens and cheap wallets, is a big culprit, with 8 million tons of it dumped in our oceans every year.

That’s why, since 2014, it’s been our mission to create exceptional everyday items – like pens and wallets – that will be cherished for decades, not months.

We want to grow Wingback into a 100-year-old company, a household name and celebration of quality materials and quality manufacturing.

We want our designs to be inherited by your grandkids in as good a condition as the day they were made.

And in this era of disposable culture and fast fashion, we want to challenge both small and large businesses to be more sustainable, responsible and transparent.

We know that starts with the actions we take as individuals and as a business.

Here’s what we’re doing to meet that commitment.

We want our products to be handed down to future generations, picking up character with every passing year

DESIGN PERPETUITY

Since 2014, we've strived to minimise our impact on the environment at every stage and to create sustainable, durable tools that only get better with age. We don’t follow seasons, we design for longevity. We want our products to be handed down to future generations, picking up character with every passing year.

OUR DESIGNS

Our Oeko-Tex cotton pouches are designed to be reused

REDUCE WASTE

Our environmentally-certified Tuscan leather is a byproduct of the meat industry and extra measures are taken to ensure wastage is minimised. Our Oeko-Tex cotton pouches are designed to be reused – most of our team use theirs to store laptop cables – and our inserts are made from recycled card.

OUR LEATHER

CARBON OFFSET

Since May 2020 we’ve been contributing to the Jari Pará Forest Conservation Project in the Amazon to offset 100% of all carbon emissions generated from our deliveries. As of April 2021 these contributions have supported the protection of an estimated 36,637m² of rainforest and 4,841 tree seedlings, saving the equivalent energy it would require to charge 493,861 smartphones.

OUR FUTURE

We're not done yet, we're at the start of our journey to become a fully carbon negative business, and we won’t stop until we get there.

Small but well engineered

I purchased a mechanical pencil in steel. It is beautifully engineered but rather small in the hand and the lack of a pocket clip is a real disadvantage. That said I’m sure it will last a lifetime provided I don’t forget where I put it.

A Thing Of Beauty

I’d heard about Wingback mechanical pencils and seen pictures of them. Being someone who prefers pencil to pen I thought I’d treat myself to one. Not only does it look great, it feels fabulous in the hand and writes beautifully. I simply love using it.

Great Wallet

I spent a long time working out exactly what I was looking for which was a compact quality leather wallet that carried a couple of cards and some cash and the Winston has far exceeded my expectations. Spend the extra on customisation as the whisky with orange thread is superb.

Excellent product and service

The pen was for a gift and as I didn’t get it engraved the team ensured a speedy dispatch so it turned up within a couple of days - in time for my husbands birthday! He loved it 😊

Very pleased with my new mechanical pencil

I love writing with my new mechanical pencil! It feels great, looks great and should last for years. Superb!
