RISA Vancouver

👜 Where timeless design meets ethical craftsmanship.

RISA is a Vancouver-based sustainable fashion brand tha was founded by sisters Riddhima and Saloni Sayal, and blends modern style with traditional craftsmanship. Each upcycled leather handbag is handcrafted by skilled women artisans in India, using age-old techniques passed down through generations.

Born from their family’s leather export business and a shared love for design, Riddhima and Saloni launched RISA in 2012 with a mission to create accessories that are as ethical as they are elegant. Every piece reflects their belief that luxury should empower, not exploit — combining sustainability, fair trade, and women-led artistry in every stitch.

Whether you’re shopping local or searching for a bag with meaning, RISA’s handcrafted creations prove that fashion and conscience can coexist beautifully.
