Vivari was founded with a passion for exceptionally-crafted products and an unrelenting commitment to challenge conventions in the retail industry. For generations, luxury goods have been made with leather: a material made from the skin of animals and used customarily by designer labels for its durability and symbol of quality.

We started Vivari to offer an alternative.

We believed that high-quality accessories could be created using innovative fabrics that replicate the key qualities of leather, but are also sustainable and animal-friendly.

In early 2015, we embarked on a yearlong effort to scour the world for the best materials and artisans out there. We convinced those artisans, who for generations worked exclusively with leather, to experiment with our animal-friendly, sustainable materials instead. The result? A collection of accessories designed with a modern spirit and edge. Each Vivari piece is handcrafted in Florence, Italy by highly-skilled craftsman who have produced accessories for high-end brands like Giorgio Armani, Versace, Dolce & Gabbana, and Ermenegildo Zegna.

While committed to creating exceptional and innovative products, Vivari is equally committed to driving positive social impact in our society.  We believe business can be a force for good.  Our efforts focus on advancing education initiatives that support underprivileged youth around the world, and every purchase made will fund our collective grant making efforts.  Our commitment to you is selecting the most innovative and impactful organizations around the world and taking you a journey on the impact you will have.

Vivari is just getting started, and we’re excited to have you along for the ride!

Design + Craftsmanship

Designed in Los Angeles and handcrafted in historic Florence, Italy – the epicenter of  fashion design and craftsmanship – our collection is made with the modern gentleman in mind.

We’ve made it our mission to search for innovative materials and ways to remain on the cutting edge of eco-friendly fashion.  We remain relentlessness in this search and will continue evolving the line w/ even more sustainable materials.

Vivari products are constructed with 100% Italian-made fabrics that are as durable as leather but sustainable and animal-friendly, making them suitable for vegetarians and vegans. Our handpicked factories and highly-skilled artisans are best in class. We visit them often and have built a strong personal relationship with each and every one of them.
