Since 1976

Moura Cuir was founded in 1976 in the cultural heart of Montreal, Canada, as a small leather workshop. Its founder was a young artisan driven by passion—dedicated to handcrafted quality and locally sourced leather. Since the very beginning, our company has always operated with the same mindset: “Local roots, global vision.” Today, we proudly remain a 100% Canadian-owned brand.

From day one, Moura Cuir grew within the vibrant neighborhoods of Montreal—especially around Rue Saint-Hubert, historically known for leather craftsmen and fashion boutiques. The brand first gained recognition through handcrafted leather shoulder bags and travel accessories. By the early 1980s, the phrase “100% Canadian Owned Since 1976” appeared in our boutique windows, and it still stands as one of our signature marks.

By the 1990s, Moura Cuir expanded beyond its physical storefront and entered wholesale distribution across Canada. During this time, we strengthened our quality standards, broadened our product line, and introduced more durable materials, functional designs, and modern aesthetics. In the early 2000s, as e-commerce grew, Moura Cuir established a strong online presence, extending service beyond Canada to international customers.

Today, Moura Cuir offers a wide range of products—from backpacks and travel luggage to business bags and everyday leather accessories. Each piece is crafted or selected to combine quality materials with functionality and timeless style. At the core of our identity remain three principles: local craftsmanship, long-lasting durability, and an exceptional customer experience.
