But hey, apart from the wonderful designs, what’s best about Style Cat is that all their bags are 100% local as they make use of indigenous materials like abaca, raffia and banukan, and are all customized, embroidered and handwoven by Albay-based artisans.

Not to mention, Style Cat is also a firm supporter of eco-ethical practices in the production and fair trade of its products. All the handbags are made from sustainably sourced materials, and serve as an opportunity for talented craftsmen to earn a steady income and continue their age-old weaving practices.
