Our story


The history of LIC Leather begins in 1971. After being formed by the famous French leather craft school called Atelier Grégoire and cultured by years of experience at a renowned luxury leather goods manufacturer, our founder Yves Thomas decided to establish in Belgium its own company specialized in high quality leather watch straps: LIC.
