Tylie Malibu is a design house specializing in hand crafted leather handbags, accessories, and shearling boots. The Collection was established in January 2000 by designer Lisa Izad of Malibu, California. The style concept embodies the Los Angeles lifestyle by combining a laidback casual attitude with the luxury and glamour that makes LA so captivating. “I like to create unstructured shapes using supple luxurious materials. Our bags are comfortable and original without ostentation,” says Lisa. Tylie appeals to those who pay particular attention to the richness of detail and to the value of unusual and precious natural resources. We take pride in the manual skill and substance of the creative process and the craftsmanship necessary to create every Tylie product.

The Tylie aesthetic is inspired by the natural textures of leather and colors of the natural landscape that surrounds Lisa’s California home. Lisa loves to travel and does a lot of her design work pool/beach side in Mexico. “I feel more creative when I can get away. Sometimes the daily tasks of managing the business makes it difficult to get into a creative mind space. I have to break my routine and get out of my element. The ideas just flow especially in the middle of the night. I keep a sketch pad by the bed just in case.”

Since the company’s inception, Lisa has worked hard to maintain the handcrafted feeling of each product opting to bring the entire production process under one roof. All Tylie products are made in the USA and are overseen by the designer and Tylie staff in our Santa Monica, California workshop.
