The American Heritage Collection - “With every scratch, there’s a story.” Heatherlee Nguyen What’s most inspiring about the J.W. Hulme company is its story; how since 1905 these fine leathers have been beaten, stitched, and dyed in our very own Saint Paul, Minnesota. “With every stitch there’s a skill.” The JWH artisans have perfected their skill of crafting these fine bags throughout the decades. With each new hand that touches it, a new story is engrained. We want new customers to appreciate the value of these leathers by realizing the J.W. Hulme’s story, its history and the history of its artisans. It is also important that loyal customers share their personal stories with the brand as they continue to pass down these keepsakes to the next generation. Focus: The American Heritage Collection, a collection made of beautiful browns that carries each and every mark its crafters and owners leave behind. Unique Selling Point (JWH): 100% USA made, lifetime guarantee due to the use of only the finest leathers and irrefutable repairs guaranteed It is the most popular collection because of it’s old and faded look, the scratches and marks that carry stories. Complimentary initials can also be permanently embossed on the bags, making them a perfect family heirloom. Audience: Upper class (wealthy), over 40 years old, classy and well-traveled Goal: Increase awareness of the J.W.H. story. Keep current customers intrigued (by prompting more personal interactions with the brand) and obtain new (perhaps younger) buyers. “With every scratch, there’s a story.”

What’s most inspiring about the J.W. Hulme company is its story; how since 1905 these fine leathers have been beaten, stitched, and dyed in our very own Saint Paul, Minnesota. “With every stitch there’s a skill.” The JWH artisans have perfected their skill of crafting these fine bags throughout the decades. With each new hand that touches it, a new story is engrained. We want new customers to appreciate the value of these leathers by realizing the J.W. Hulme’s story, its history and the history of its artisans. It is also important that loyal customers share their personal stories with the brand as they continue to pass down these keepsakes to the next generation.

Focus: The American Heritage Collection, a collection made of beautiful browns that carries each and every mark its crafters and owners leave behind.

Unique Selling Point (JWH): 100% USA made, lifetime guarantee due to the use of only the finest leathers and irrefutable repairs guaranteed

Unique Selling Point (American Heritage Collection): It is the most popular collection because of it’s old and faded look, the scratches and marks that carry stories. Complimentary initials can also be permanently embossed on the bags, making them a perfect family heirloom.

Goal: Increase awareness of the J.W.H. story. Keep current customers intrigued (by prompting more personal interactions with the brand) and obtain new (perhaps younger) buyers.
