Burkely is a renowned Dutch leather goods brand with deep roots in the Netherlands' historical leather capital, Waalwijk. Founded in 1988 as a subsidiary of Horsten Lederwaren (a company established in 1944), the brand has remained a dedicated family-owned business for three generations. It is currently led by Preben Horsten, who continues the legacy of his father and grandfather by merging traditional Dutch design with international craftsmanship.

While the brand's design and conceptualization are based in Tilburg, Netherlands, the physical manufacturing of its products has been primarily centered in India since 1993. The company chooses to work with long-standing partner factories in India to leverage their specialized expertise in handcrafted leather goods. Burkely emphasizes ethical production and sustainability, frequently visiting these Indian facilities to ensure high standards of quality and fair working conditions.
