Peter Nam’s innovation, brilliance and perfectionism are priceless assets to his work as CEO of Gunther Werks, where he remasters the most elegant Porsches in the luxury car business. A relationship ignited by mutual friend and car enthusiast Parisa, it was Peter and Nancy’s second Motorcar collaboration, inspired by the Porsche 911 remastered by Gunther Werks, that sparked The NAHM. This weekender embodies the car’s honeycomb quilting and prominent aesthetic, worthy of Peter’s sense of design. Adamant that “The Nam” didn’t have the appeal worthy of a JAMAH bag, Peter insisted on a sexier moniker: “The NAHM.” A nod to his equally perfectionist and unassuming wife and business partner, powerhouse Carol Hahn, The NAHM is the perfect blend of the two creatives.
Magical. Curious. Empathetic. Joyous. Though it may be rare for a child to embody these characteristics, it is no surprise that Nancy is completely enchanted by the young Lars, son of her forever friend Rosey. Sized to fit an airplane carry-on compartment, the Lars is an elegant and expansive weekender. The bag stands straight, with clean lines and subtle edges and exudes the confidence instilled in Lars by his writer/director and former world-class equestrian vaulter mother, Rosey. Lars’s curiosity, energy and intelligence will carry him as he journeys through life. The Lars is the perfect bag to accompany a budding adventurer on weekend trips across the world.
Inspired by Nancy’s cherished and most loyal “twin,” The Frankie emulates his versatility and worldliness. The depth of Frankie’s unconditional and endless support, inspiration and encouragement is awe-inspiring. Like its impressive namesake, the spacious but lightweight multi-purpose bag is extraordinary in its own right. This perfect weekender’s roomy canvas accommodates travel and adventure, while its understated design is symbolic of Frankie’s natural brilliance and humble sophistication. Features include a front pocket, two way zipper closure, detachable strap for carrying options and suede lining. No matter your destination, The Frankie will make sure you arrive in style.
Part of a limited-edition collaboration between automaker Gunther Werks and JAMAH, The Frankie Porsche Edition is the perfect fit for their 400R, an automotive masterpiece that utilizes the chasis of the classic Porsche 933 as its canvas. The high-octane alliance resulted in a sumptuous limited edition version of The Frankie, mirroring the sporty, sexy details of the 400R, right down to its celebrated houndstooth. The partnership was perfectly suited for Frankie, a car aficionado himself. This classic weekender features a front pocket, two way zipper closure, a detachable strap for carrying options and sumptuous red lining. No matter your destination, The Frankie will make sure you arrive in style.
Quietly compassionate, unexpected and witty, The Gibson’s namesake never fails to make Nancy laugh. When she noticed his strong attachment to a cherished canvas messenger bag, she discreetly got to work on a sleek, elevated replacement that would represent the JAMAH aesthetic. Just as Gibson has a layered, complex personality, his namesake bag serves many purposes. When crafted from a vintage leather, The Gibson makes a stylish everyday bag. In a more structured skin, it offers a fresh take on a briefcase that although modern, has an aesthetic that evokes the Mad Men era. With its many pockets, the Gibson can support your every need, just as its namesake has supported Nancy with his generosity, openness, philosophical wisdom and his famous “Apple Crapple.”
A modern take on the briefcase, this chic, unisex messenger style bag features an abundance of functional options. Multiple interior and exterior pockets designed to hold baby bottles and diapers, double to hold water bottles and devices. With a luxurious changing pad that converts to a computer wrap, The Nanny is the culmination of much sought-after input from Nancy’s male and female friends. Short of negotiating deals, babysitting and housework, there is virtually nothing this bag cannot do. Adjustable straps allow for comfortable carrying, while an array of skin selections give the option for added femininity or masculinity.
Honoring the integrity of a vintage satchel and in an ode to the progressiveness of its endlessly generous and inspiring namesake, The Carter is designed for men and women on the move, literally and figuratively. Carter moves from boardrooms to charity fundraisers, from trips around town to remote islands, from VIP events to one-on-ones with budding entrepreneurs. Wherever his journeys take him, he functions as the North Star, a guiding light. Carter’s traditional gentlemanly nature is always on full display, as is his vibrant entrepreneurial spirit, both of which are captured in this modern treatment of a timeless design. Two gusseted pockets adorn the front face and are met by a supple envelope-style flap. Featuring a magnetic closure and an adjustable strap for ease of use, The Carter is the perfect partner for that trip to Paris – or wherever it is that your heart may take you.
This gender-neutral mail bag boasts a sleek face and ample carrying capacity, in honor of its namesake James’s commitment to shouldering his friends’ burdens, no matter the size. Suspended by a single, adjustable strap, The Kicklighter hangs comfortably at any length. A zipper closure and back pocket make this bag the ultimate in practical style, only fitting for a bag named after someone so loyal, authentic and truly remarkable.
An enduring JAMAH favorite, The Lewis is a classic, understated messenger bag designed for both men and women. It pays tribute to its namesake’s straight-to-the-point nature and multifaceted lifestyle. A lawyer by day and rockstar by night, Lewis inspired Nancy to create a bag that moves effortlessly from work to life beyond the office. Thoughtfully designed with ample space for a laptop, The Lewis suspends comfortably from a single adjustable strap and features a secure zipper closure with a convenient back pocket. Practical, powerful, and quietly confident, The Lewis is designed for those who value function without compromise.
A reincarnation of a classic courier bag, The Vander breathes new life into a timeless style. As its namesake does for Nancy, The Vander will remain steadfastly by your side, subtly providing everything you need. Combining the best elements of traditional with a modern, progressive sensibility, The Vander offers utilitarian features, including a deep back pocket, a center divider and room for a laptop. The bag you cannot live without, its additional functionality helps keep you organized with pockets for phone and business cards. As you fly from commitment to commitment, The Vander always has your back.
Sleek, dignified and practical, The Clinton is a direct reflection of its namesake and inaugural owner, President Bill Clinton. Designed with the traveling man in mind, this stylish accessory holds an iPad, wallet, book, phone, glasses and passport. Imparting a casual, cool vibe, The Clinton's compact envelope style is the epitome of utilitarian versatility.

World traveler. Entrepreneur. Philanthropist. Devoted father. Jason’s contagious energy, legendary sense of humor and rare ability to listen make him one of Nancy’s most beloved and trusted friends. He knows you can accomplish anything you set your mind to and will lift you up and remind you of that any time of the day or night. Exceedingly generous, he shares everything he has. Otherwise known as “The Best Jason in the World,” he provides guidance to those around him. The quintessential gentleman, Jason is strong and dignified with a heart of gold. An impassioned traveler, forever seeking new adventures, it was clear to Nancy that only a garment bag would properly represent his namesake design. The bag and the man who inspired it share many similar characteristics; both are exceptionally high-quality and both efficiently and elegantly get the job done.
