My heart is still with Japan, just got this email earlier today from Gucci, they’re releasing a limited edition charity bracelet to support earthquake relief efforts in Japan. All proceeds from sales of the bracelet will benefit the Japanese Red Cross Society to support victims of the devastating Higashi Nihon Dai-Shinsai earthquake and tsunami that struck Japan in March.

The bracelet features a white-red-white web that recalls the colors of the Japanese flag, the bracelet carries a medal with a message that reads, “Gucci loves you.” Detailing includes non-allergenic white Calf leather on the lining and trim as well as a buckle in the shape of the House’s iconic horsebit. The one-size bracelet offers three adjustable sizes and retails for $100.

The charity bracelet will debut at Gucci stores throughout Japan, followed by worldwide distribution in Gucci flagship stores across the United States, Europe, and Asia.

Cute bracelet for a good cause, support!

  3. Kiks says:

    wait. so the $100 for the bracelet go directly to charity? none of that 'portion of the proceeds' thing?

    so worth it then.

    Hope this comes out in the Philippines soon. Can't wait!

  6. A great gesture by Gucci, Japan really needs our help. They keep on getting hit by aftershocks and the nuclear reactor is heading towards a meltdown.

    May all our prayers be with these disaster struck people. May god help them.

    Regards,

    does anyone know where can I buy this? There is not Gucci store near my town!

    Okay first off its refreshing that it's all proceeds go to charity and all but why not make them cheaper than $100.00 and make 90% of the proceeds go to charity instead. and not make it a limited edition. They will sell more make a little profit to cover costs and raise more money for the cause.

    It's all PR, I think they are more interested to get buzz than to help Japan….
