Is JW PEI a luxury brand?

No, and it does not claim to be. It is accessible luxury: sculptural, logo-free vegan-leather bags at USD 39 to USD 329 at the brand, sold through department stores such as Galeries Lafayette, La Rinascente, Fenwick, Liberty, Level Shoes and David Jones, and photographed on celebrities. At Luxury Handbags the bags run $160 to $590 with a median of $310.

Is JW PEI real leather?

No. Every JW PEI bag is vegan: a polyurethane-based vegan leather, faux suede, canvas, denim, satin and faux straw, with part of the fabric certified as made from recycled plastic bottles. It wipes clean and does not develop a patina.

Where is JW PEI from?

Los Angeles, California, where it was founded in 2018 by Yang Pei and Stephanie Li, a husband and wife. The brand describes its products as imported and does not publish a factory country.

Which JW PEI bag should I buy first?

The Gabbi in black if you want the bag the brand is known for, the Hana medium tote if you need a work bag, the Lucia if you want a classic handbag shape, the Abacus in crystal for an evening.

How does JW PEI sizing work?
