The Partnership
Charlotte's cornerstone.
From its founding in 1867, Johnson C. Smith University has shaped generations of leaders. This inaugural collection honors that legacy — 20 to 25% of every sale returns directly to the university, funding scholarships and programs for the next generation of Golden Bulls.
"Our institutions deserve luxury. Our alumni deserve heirlooms. And every tote gives back to the institutions we call home."
