Groundcover Leather Company was founded in 1990 by Justin and Amanda McCarthy. A family business located on a farm in the KwaZulu-Natal Midlands of South Africa, Groundcover is the expression of a lifelong passion for leatherwork and a search for a meaningful livelihood.
From small beginnings, we have grown into a sensibly sized, sustainable enterprise and have become well-known as makers of original, finely handcrafted leather footwear and accessories.
It happens to all of us. We get to the threadbare bottom of a toothpaste tube, reminding ourselves to buy some more the next time we go to the shop, only to get home that evening with literally everything else in our grocery bags BUT the toothpaste. So, we decide to do it the old-fashioned way and make a list: toothpaste, bread, milk, lava lamp bulbs, the works.
We arrive at the shop having struggled to find parking, grab a trolley and realise: we left the list at home. The vicious cycle continues. How can some people be SO organised and others just... not? If something as simple as having basic dental hygiene at home could cause this much trouble, how on earth would we be able to arrange a weekend away?
It's simple, really. Our main deal of luggage organiser cubes from NomadNest. No, they won't help you remember what to pack for your trip, but the rush of seeing your stuff in neatly packed cubes will be worth it. Toothpaste not included.
