Why Latico?

Redefining Everyday Essentials


Discover our collection of beautifully- designed leather essentials. Each piece embodies a bohemian aesthetic, breezy attitude, and independent spirit.

After three decades of working with leather, we've created heirloom-quality pieces that ripen with age. We hand-select each hide and use a unique blend of natural dyes so the natural character of each leather shines through.

The Embodiment
of Better


Each Latico bag is handmade with love by talented artisans throughout South America and India. We're passionate about environmental sustainability and giving back — our leathers are byproducts of the meat and dairy industry that would otherwise go to waste.

Additionally, we donate 10 meals to Feeding America for every purchase made on our website. Thanks to our loyal customers, we've been able to donate 100,000 meals and counting to this incredible organization.

About Our Founders

Founder and CEO 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 genuine 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. The unique artisan linings, unexpected leather treatments, and extensive interior organization created during that time would come to define Latico’s signature style.

Today, our customers refer to us as their “one-stop shop” for quality leather goods. In fact, over 80% of our business comes from repeat customers. We can’t thank you enough for your ongoing support!

"Just as we've demonstrated our success in designing and manufacturing quality investment pieces, we've also achieved a high level of customer satisfaction by listening and responding to our loyal customers."

- Paul & Lainie Schreiber, Founders of Latico Leathers

I really really wanted to love this, but I don't...

I am generally a fan of latico products, but this backpack really frustrates me. I was looking for something that I could bring on trips and when walking around the city. I thought long and hard about what I was looking for and I thought I found it with the Aleks, but I've worn it a few times now and it's definitely not. Plusses: quality leather, color

Minuses: There's only one zipper pull for each opening (and it ends on the side). Every time I need to access something, I have to take it off (and usually lay it on a table or the ground) to access the zipper. When I go to put it back on, I have to hold the top handle, so the whole bag doesn't drop to the opposite side. It's an ordeal every time. Also, I do try to access something while it's on my back, I always am opening the wrong compartment. Finally, it's a tad small. I would not recommend this bag and am frankly surprised at all the great reviews...
