ORIGINS
Alix’s journey with May Twenty began in 2014 when she set out on a simple mission to replace her worn-out watch strap.
Unfortunately, her search left her disappointed, as local options failed to meet her standards of quality and style.
This experience sparked an entrepreneurial flame within her, and Alix envisioned a brand that would transform the watch strap experience, offering an unrivaled combination of choice, adaptability, and affordability.
And so, with a heart full of passion and a vision for excellence, May Twenty was born.

Therefore, we are sure they come from reputable farms where animals are treated with respect. This guarantees the wildlife is preserved while the finished product is of better quality
Responsible
Highlighting May Twenty’s commitment to eco-responsibility, the vegan collection combines tradition and modernity, through a variety of technical innovations including the reuse of food industry waste, like apple and grapes requiring less synthetic material than conventional vegan leather. The strap is 100% vegan, including the inside-part.
