Family-run since 1984. Each Latico bag is handmade with love by artisans in South America and India, and every bump, wrinkle, and scratch on the leather makes your bag more unique than the rest. Our full-grain leather is sustainably-sourced from the byproducts of the meat & dairy industry, and only from cows that are pasture-raised in stable climates. Founder Paul Schreiber started Latico Leathers fresh out of college in 1984. He began selling leather goods out of his trunk in NYC, and soon enough, specialty boutiques in Greenwich Village couldn't keep his merchandise in stock. Bands like the Grateful Dead eventually became fans of his leather bags, and Latico grew into its identity as a leather goods company with a rock and roll twist. Paul met his wife Lainie — an uptown girl with a New York fashion background — and the two launched a celebrated women’s line.
