DINO was born from a lifetime of color, nostalgia, energy, and imagination.
Growing up as a triplet — and the youngest of six — life always felt loud, layered, and larger than life. But learning to express individuality with confidence didn’t come easily. For years, color, creativity, and excitement stayed mostly internal. DINO became the outlet for all of it.
The inspiration behind DINO comes from everywhere — Saturday morning cartoons, sci-fi worlds, and colorful characters that felt like lifelong friends. Music playing from the FM radio in the garage while a 1964 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme sat with the hood open. The fearless style, innovation, and energy of ‘80s pop culture. And the lasting impression of a gym duffle bag from the racquetball club.
DINO is where those worlds meet.
Every bag is designed and handcrafted to carry more than your essentials. They carry optimism, individuality, movement, humor, and personality. Inspired by decades of lived experience, DINO bags are made for people who want more than another black or gray bag.
We believe color changes energy.
We believe design should make you feel something.
We believe everyday carry should feel like a trusted sidekick.
Constructed from marine-grade vinyl that is UV-protected, water-repellent, and mildew-resistant, each piece is built for everyday life. Bold exteriors, vibrant interiors, and unexpected color pairings meet timeless silhouettes drawn from across generations — creating bags that feel both nostalgic and forward-looking.
DINO exists to pass positive energy forward — one bag at a time.
Don’t make what you think others want to see. Create your own portrait.
