Studio Candle

The first thing people always comment on when they walk into our studio is the amazing smell of leather. We've often been asked to somehow bottle that scent so that people can have it wherever they go. Finally, we have the next best thing: KMM & Co.'s own Studio candle. Just like our studio, it doesn't smell exclusively like leather, but has a complex mixture of notes, including leather, sandalwood, and vanilla. 

To create this candle, we teamed up with a fellow local Atlanta business, Brick + Mortar, which was founded by our friend David. David makes the very best candles we’ve ever had, while creating jobs for women transitioning out of crisis at City of Refuge (only a few miles down the road from us). The Brick + Mortar crew made us a pure soy candle that sets the perfect mood for working with your hands, doing something creative, or hanging out with friends — all the things we love to do at the KMM & Co. studio.

*Please note that while we show the candle lit in a few of these photos, you will not receive a lit candle in the mail: You will have to light it yourself. 

**Also, while the candle is named Studio, it will work in non-studio settings. It's compatible with living rooms, kitchens, bathrooms, offices, and bedrooms. It is not for hallways.

What is full-grain leather?

Full-grain leather is leather that retains the entire thickness of the top layer of the hide, without any sanding or buffing. That way, it retains its natural character *and* its natural strength. Full-grain leather grows more beautiful with age and use.

Because it isn't sanded or "corrected," full-grain leather has natural markings and variations that you can see. When you're shopping for a leather bag, you should always look for these natural variations to figure out if you're looking at full-grain leather. (We're always suspicious of anything that looks too uniform, too flat, or too fake!)

"There is no other bag like this one! I cannot express how beautiful and well made this bag is. The color, precision and just perfection of every last detail is amazing. Do yourself a favor and get yourself one. This will last you a lifetime."

– LEAH C., VERIFIED BUYER

Who is KMM & Co.?

KMM & Co. was founded by Kyle Martin, who studied Accessory Design at the Savannah College of Art and Design. During his time at SCAD, Kyle was one of the first students in the Accessory Design program to focus on menswear. His classmates called him "KMM," and the name stuck. When he started his brand in 2011, "KMM" felt like an obvious choice for the name. Kyle found the perfect business partner in his childhood friend Marcus Orfield, who shares his love of vintage American style and classic workwear design.

For KMM & Co., "heirloom quality" isn't a catchphrase: It's an intention and a promise. Every rivet on a leather tote bag is set by hand. Monograms are stamped letter by letter. Wallets are meticulously hand-stitched. And every detail, from the grain of the leather to the color of the thread to the angle of the bevel on a strap, is carefully considered. 

Growing up in a small town – Calhoun, Georgia – Kyle and Marcus learned to appreciate objects that are made to stand the test of time. With the help of a small but talented team, KMM & Co. has come a long way since the days when Kyle and Marcus were dreaming about what might be possible. Today, we ship leather tote bags and accessories around the world. But everything is still made by hand, made to order, and made in America. We're proud to be able to carry on the tradition of the countless small USA-made brands that have supplied beautiful and functional accessories to generations of Americans.

Ask away! FAQs about KMM & Co. accessories

Can I have my item(s) monogrammed?

We're happy to offer complimentary monogramming for every item in the KMM & Co. collection that can be stamped. We can emboss leather tags, key fobs, wallets, clutches, sunglasses cases, leather journals, coasters, valet trays, and guitar straps. We can't emboss bags, zip pouches, key clips, or tassels. All letter and number stamps are the same size, so we recommend initials in first-middle-last order.

How much will shipping cost for my order?

Shipping is free for U.S. orders of $50 or more. U.S. orders under $50 cost just $5 to ship. We ship in the U.S. and worldwide via the USPS.

Where are KMM & Co. accessories made?

Every KMM & Co. item is handmade in the USA! Our studio is located downtown Atlanta, and every item in our collection is made in and shipped from Atlanta. (No factories, no warehouses, and no fulfillment centers!)

What is KMM & Co.'s policy on returns and exchanges?

All eligible orders can be returned or exchanged within 30 days of delivery. The only exceptions are final sale items, and items customized for you.

What kinds of markings can I expect with full-grain leather?

Full-grain leather retains all of its original grain and character, including any imperfections. You might see range marks, grain variations, small spots or scratches, folds, or color variation. They're all a beautiful part of the leather's natural character.
