Harber London started in early 2012, when co-founders Armando Isaac, William Mosquera and Caroline Maldonado were in a London kitchen complaining about how hard it had become to find a decent laptop sleeve. None of them had any real background in leather design or manufacturing, so they worked it out as they went, settling on production in Spain rather than at home in London. The company has stayed family-run since, keeping its range narrow and centered on simple, functional leather pieces rather than expanding into unrelated categories.
