About the brand

Designed in Toronto, Espe creates vegan handbags and accessories that pair everyday practicality with a thoughtful, cruelty-free approach. Made from premium PU vegan leather, each piece is designed to be durable, functional, and easy to wear—without compromising on style or values.

With smart compartments, versatile silhouettes, and designs that move effortlessly from work to weekend, the collection is built for real life. Alongside women’s styles, the Benjamin Gordon men’s line offers clean, timeless designs crafted with the same commitment to ethical materials and accessible luxury.
