We set out with a simple vision: to make timeless, quality goods that last.&nbsp;&nbsp;Since then, we\u2019ve perfected our art of craftsmanship with a catalog of exceptional products that reflect our values\u2014and a select few have emerged as Shinola crown jewels. Although diverse in form and function, they all embody great design grounded by purpose and touched with the ingenious.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Just a decade ago, people were saying that the age of manufacturing in America\u2014especially in Detroit\u2014was over. We\u2019re proud to say we are still here\u2026and going stronger than ever. Presenting our family of Icons.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With love.
