The Bak Seng factory has been a part of Boonyanuch “Kae” Vitayasamrit’s family for three generations, producing high-quality leather shoes in the west of Bangkok for the last 70 years.

Since she and her siblings began taking over in 2013, their vision has revolved around slow fashion, preserving the old ways of making, and shifting the needle on customer values.
