Lambertson Truex is an American design house founded in 1998; the melodious name and classic style belie their recent arrival on the scene. Richard Lambertson and John Truex, the partners behind the LT logo, design and manufacture bags that are both timeless and of-the-moment.

Precisely crafted with meticulous attention to detail, they have built in wallets and key holders. Thoughtfully, they are lined with the signature periwinkle blue leather or suede to illuminate the interiors. Each piece is designed to be as ergonomic as it is elegant. “I want each bag to be carried for a long time,” says John Truex. “They soften, get more personality with age. Each one becomes a little jewel to be rediscovered over and over again”. In the age of disposability, Lambertson Truex is made to defy time. The superior craftsmanship and sublime design retain undeniable value. Your Lambertson Truex bag is one you keep.

It is no wonder that the team was nominated for the 1999 Perry Ellis Award for Accessories and later presented with the 2000 Accessory Designer of the Year Award by the Council of Fashion Designers of America. Graduates of important Design Houses – Calvin Klein, Carlos Falchi, Geoffrey Beene, Gucci – Lambertson Truex elevates the language of accessories with sculpted shapes, perfectly engineered hardware, reinforced structures, and luxurious leathers. The result: inventive, glamorous bags that run the gamut from La Dolce Vita Diva to Upper East Side Socialite and everywhere in between. “Our line is all about diversity. We want to give every kind of woman the opportunity to wear a beautiful bag no matter where her lifestyle takes her,” John explains. “Whether it be to the beach or a benefit, our bags have style but they are also functional.” Bold Beauty is always balanced by simple utility. The definition of American expression: that’s Lambertson Truex.
