In 2013, our founders Ariel and Zee met through mutual friends and instantly clicked through their shared love for fashion and nature. It was fate when one sunny afternoon they both were discussing their aspirations and the topic of opening a store was mentioned. This initial “silly dream” developed into Ariel and Zee creating a business plan and signing a lease for what would be known as the first Whiskey x Leather in Montecito, California. Fast forward 6 years later, these incredible women have opened a second location, with the help of their amazing customers, in Del Mar, San Diego and are on the way to further expanding in the heart of Southern California.
