The brand name "L4K3" comes from the word "LAKE."
The numbers "4" and "3" in the brand name can be replaced with letters "4 = A" and "3 = E" to express their true meaning.
The brand was born on Lake Iseo in Lombardy, northern Italy.
The town of Sarnico on Lake Iseo is known for being the home of the shipyard of the Ferretti Group, a boat builder beloved by celebrities around the world, and is also a place where advanced technology in the manufacturing of luxury yachts and cruisers is concentrated.
This place has a long history and is home to craftsmen with traditional Italian techniques and design skills. 
Monte Isola (Monte Island) is located on Lake Iseo, with an area of approximately 65.3 km2.
In the 1400s, Brescia citizens who resisted the Venetian Republic's rule over the area were imprisoned in a prison built on Monte Island.
The prisoners had to make ropes to arm the ships of the Venetian navy.
On October 18, 1797, Napoleon, who had launched his Italian campaign, defeated the Austrian army and concluded the peace treaty, the Treaty of Campo Formio, which resulted in the abolition of the Republic of Venice and the liberation of the citizens of Brescia.
At that time, the French army allowed the people of Brescia to make nets and ropes as self-employed, which gave rise to the rope industry on Lake Iseo.
And even today, the quality of the nautical ropes produced on Monte Island is considered to be the best in the world. 

In 2012, inspired by the traditions, creativity and craftsmanship of the people of Monte Island, L4K3's first bracelet was created using rope and fishing cord that had been stored in a warehouse for decades.
