I grew up learning that certain desires were wrong — like wanting to carry a bag. Not as a boy. Not in Italy.

10.03.53 is an experimental leather goods brand born from a deep internal tension — between heritage and liberation.

Its founder, Luca Colosimo, grew up in a world shaped by discipline and tradition. As a child, he was drawn to bags — objects that were forbidden to him, as they were associated with femininity and non-conformity. Today, they have become intimate manifestos of freedom for him.

Each piece is an organic sculpture, handcrafted from discarded materials: leather offcuts, cellulose, concrete... What the industry discards, the brand recovers and transforms into objects filled with meaning and presence.

The form follows the gesture. The material becomes emotion.

10.03.53 embraces a radical minimalism — raw, sensual, and deliberate. No ornamentation, no excess: every line is intentional, every volume designed to last. The bags resist trends and seasons. They are timeless, but never fixed; precise, but not decorative. A design language rooted in instinct and permanence.

The brand celebrates difference and rejects all categorization. Gender neutrality, here, is neither a concept nor a trend — it’s a space of freedom, movement, and self-expression.

The name 10.03.53 pays homage to Luca's father — a birth date transformed into a statement. A way of saying: « I come from there, but I carve my own path. »

Born in Italy, the designer has made Paris his adopted home — a city that provided his project the space to grow and roots to anchor into.
