Now, surf and health based Stephanie Vorpahl brings a little city to the North Shore of Maui. Her line of fringe happy purses and clutches are the perfect blend of rock and sand, fun colors that reflect her everyday, aqua blues for the ocean and simple sleek black that can go island hopping or back to the mainland at any time. Born and raised in Minneapolis Stephanie always knew she would be an entrepreneur but when a friend asked her to make an “everyday” leather clutch, she fell in love with the process and outcome of hand making leather bags. “I love to work with leather. The feel, the clean lines, the natural hide and non uniform shapes.”

Working the fashion industry in many facets over her 15 year career from technical patterning to costume design and Instructor at Art Center L.A., Stephanie has a broad knowledge of what will last. Steadfast on a handmade product that gets better with time and never compromising the quality she wanted to provide a product that is “well made leather purses with attention to detail,” starting with sustainably sourced leather from free range cattle that ages beautifully over time.
