Our History
Raised in the heart of bourbon country, we grew to value what was storied, tested and enduring. The traditions of our upbringing taught us the value of honest, hard work and the pride that’s earned by creating something with your own two hands. After meeting in college, we began our creative journey with the simple idea that, like grandpa’s luggage and dad’s time tested belt, all leather goods should last a lifetime.
We are honored that you discovered C&C. We hope that while exploring our site you will, like many before you, decide to allow one of our products to become a part of your story. It is our mission to create goods that, like a barrel of good Kentucky bourbon, only get better with time.

We encourage our team to participate in local networking events and to invest their time into opportunities that allow giving back.
