Sustainable Style with Sherpani
We believe in shining a light on brands that not only create with purpose but inspire others to do the same. Meet Sherpani, a woman-owned company based in Boulder, Colorado, that’s redefining what it means to design with intention. The brand’s name pays homage to the incredible female Sherpas of the Himalayas, who embody strength, resilience, and leadership. Every bag they create is for the woman in motion—from navigating bustling cities to exploring remote trails or simply tackling the daily grind with style and ease.
What Makes Them Stand Out
Sherpani doesn’t just talk about sustainability. It’s woven into everything they do. Their bags are crafted with recycled materials like ocean-bound plastic, delivering eco-friendly products without sacrificing quality or style. They champion ethical manufacturing, partnering with BSCI-compliant factories that ensure fair wages and safe working conditions. Even down to their packaging, Sherpani embraces eco-conscious practices, proving that it’s possible to bring fashion to the forefront without compromising the planet.
Our Favorite Picks
Here’s a glimpse of Sherpani’s standout designs that we’re obsessed with right now.

Boston | Anti-Theft Weekender
Weekend getaway? Business trip? The Boston Anti-Theft Weekender is ready for it all. With spacious compartments, RFID protection, locking zippers, and a convenient luggage pass-through, it’s the travel companion you didn’t know you needed. Stylish, secure, and oh-so-functional.
Juno | Duffel Backpack
Sleek, versatile, and made for movement, the Juno takes hybrid design to a new level. Wear it as a backpack or carry it as a duffel. Either way, you get plenty of storage space and Sherpani’s signature style. It’s built for those who are always on the go, blending sharp aesthetics with serious functionality.
