2020, copit was incorporated when 'Delta' was striking, devastating most Asia regions. Our team kind of expected life would not be the same but then the Russia-Ukraine war broke out while our global economy was still in recovery. By April of 2022, we landed in Canada regardless and learned that most businesses and events were still ‘half-asleep’ for not having enough traffic (eg: LLHA Tradeshow postponed several times and remained in limbo, One Of A Kind Show got only 1/3 its annual vendor participation).

Besides buying merchandises from Gucci, Dior, Rick Owens, etc., we’ve been experimenting with ODM for at least one sponsored brand called CANGIANTE. It's a collaborative vision among creative talents in North America.
And finally, for our pursuit of sustainability, we’ve committed to source the most of leather remnants, thrown-aways skins, and deadstock hardware for collection production, as well as during our R&D. During this journey, we might have invented a new chemical paste to help refinish the surface of damaged leather - a mixture of fresh rubber sap, mixed with non-toxic coloring agent, ...
