About DINO

DINO is a handcrafted bag brand inspired by color, nostalgia, individuality, and everyday adventure.

Built from memories of classic cars, Saturday morning cartoons, vintage road trips, neighborhood adventures, and the colorful spirit of the 1970s and 1980s, DINO creates bags with personality.

At the heart of DINO is the belief that the things we carry should feel as individual as the people carrying them.

Rather than designing everything to look exactly the same, DINO embraces different colors, unexpected combinations, distinctive details, and changing personalities from bag to bag and collection to collection. Some are bold. Some are understated. Some feel playful, sporty, nostalgic, or classic. The idea is that there should be a DINO that speaks to you.

Every bag is handcrafted from durable marine-grade vinyl that is UV protected, water repellent, mildew resistant, and built for everyday life. Function is always part of the design, but DINO is about more than utility. It is about giving you something you can connect with—something that feels personal the moment you see it.

Because individuality shouldn't stop with what you wear.

Your everyday carry can express your taste, your energy, your memories, and your point of view too.

We believe color changes energy.

We believe differences make things more interesting.

We believe everyone should be able to find something that feels uniquely theirs.

And we believe your everyday bag should feel less like just another accessory and more like a trusted sidekick.

Find the DINO that feels like you.

Welcome to DINO.

Handmade, One at a Time

Every DINO bag is individually cut, sewn, and finished by me — there's no factory or production team behind the scenes. DINO is a small, independent brand that I run alongside my full-time work as a teacher.

Because each bag is made by hand and produced in limited quantities, made-to-order pieces may not always be available, and production times can vary throughout the year.

If you're waiting a little longer for a DINO, know that it's because your bag is being made one at a time, with the same care and attention I give to every piece.
