About the Brand
A Commitment to Integrity
Kate is dedicated to personally handcrafting each of her signature bags herself, right here in Arizona. Offering only original designs and quality leather, Kissin' Kate provides you a bag that goes unmatched to any other. When the common theme in the leather accessory industry is sending designs overseas to be mass produced, Kate is committed to brand integrity and supporting the local community instead.
The Artist
At 6 years old, Kate discovered the art of hand sewing, and began creating pillows, and doll clothes. As her ideas grew, it became necessary to learn to use a sewing machine. After just one lesson on a machine, she taught herself the rest, and spent many late nights in her teens creating outfits to wear to school the next day.
It didn't take long for the dream to evolve. Kate began her first business called "Kate Designs" at 13 to sell her creations. After many business ideas and changes over the years, Kate finally settled on the world of leather, where she could share her love of the western culture, with a unique touch of retro imagery. Her faith in God has given her the passion to fuel it all.
Authenticity
Authentic Kissin' Kate bags and designs are only available here at KissinKate.com. Apart from the immediate drastic difference you will notice in quality in the mass produced counterfeits from overseas, genuine Kissin' Kate bags are always labeled for authenticity.
