Able Debre Wallet

Fashion brand Able is devoted to creating high-quality, minimalistic bags, clothes, jewelry, and shoes, and this 100-percent Ethiopian leather wallet is just that: simple, practical, and made with the best materials. But the company's devotion to quality reaches far beyond its products; Able is devoted to creating a quality workplace. When the brand's founders noticed that the largest global employer of women—the fashion industry—didn't pay employees sufficient wages, thereby perpetuating the cycle of female poverty, they set out to change things. In 2018, Able became the first fashion brand to publish its lowest wages online for all to see, promoting transparency and an end to corporate exploitation.
