The Story of Velvrix
From Tradition to Global Innovation
Velvrix is more than just a brand—it’s a legacy that bridges generations, continents, and craftsmanship with passion. The story of Velvrix begins with two ambitious students, Bilal Siddiqui and Owais Khan, who pursued their studies in Germany. While excelling academically, they were drawn by a shared vision: to expand their family’s esteemed leather business in Germany and across Europe.
The family legacy dates back to 1967, a time when their forefathers began crafting premium leather products with dedication and artistry. Over the years, this business expanded globally, supplying high-quality leatherwear to some of the world’s most renowned brands, including Schott NYC, Belstaff, Guess, Danier, Oakwood, and Forestland. The legacy thrived in markets across the USA, Canada, Australia, the United Kingdom, Germany, France, Italy, Spain, and other parts of the world, establishing Velvrix as a trusted name in leather craftsmanship around the world.
A Legacy of Excellence: The Story of Velvrix
The Vision: A New Chapter in Germany
While studying and immersing themselves in German culture, Bilal and Owais noticed a significant gap: the same high-quality leather products their family had been manufacturing were being sold at exorbitant prices, marked up 10 to 20 times their original value. This realization fueled their determination to take action. They envisioned a brand that would offer premium, handmade leather products at fair, accessible prices, cutting out unnecessary middlemen and excessive markups. This vision birthed Velvrix.
