Ettinger

Ettinger is a British leather goods maker with a current range of wallets, card cases, purses, bags and small accessories. The official shop presents separate collections for men and women. Its men's wallet range includes billfold wallets, coat wallets, money clip styles, zipped wallets and card holders. The women's collection includes zipped purses, flap over purses and coin purses. Wallets are therefore a direct match for the live product category used here. The brand also makes travel bags, belts, watch rolls, jewellery storage and other gifts, so its work reaches beyond a single accessory.

A London business founded in 1934

Gerry Ettinger founded the business in 1934 after moving to London and becoming a United Kingdom representative for European leather goods makers. The company history describes its early work supplying London retailers and its gradual move from suitcases into smaller leather accessories. Ettinger says it remains family owned and is now run by Gerry's son Robert. The official website is operated by G. Ettinger Ltd, an active British company whose Companies House record dates incorporation to 1938. Its registered office and customer showroom are on Putney Bridge Road in London. The combination of a documented history, current trading site and registered manufacturing company supports a clear British identity.

British leather craft and production

Ettinger says it is one of the few British leather goods makers still manufacturing in the United Kingdom. The company first bought a London factory in the 1950s. In 1999 it acquired the Walsall factory of James Homer Ltd, a leather goods maker established in 1890, and continued production with its workforce. The current factory page describes craftspeople who cut patterns, prepare samples, assemble leather pieces and check quality. The range uses several leather types as well as canvas for selected bags. Materials and construction vary between collections, which is why the brand gives product details for each wallet, bag or accessory.

Wallets for daily use and travel

Current wallets include classic billfold forms, compact card cases, zipped designs and versions with money clips. The site gives customers colour choices and product information for each style, while personalisation and gift services extend the range. Ettinger reports that the brand is available in more than 50 countries worldwide. That international reach sits alongside its family ownership, London base and continued British manufacturing. Shoppers looking for leather wallets can compare each model's materials, format and price on the official collection page, then review the care and shipping information for their location before ordering.
