Who We Are And How We Got Here

My name is Jill Marie Louden and I am the creator of Switch Purse.

The Beginning

So how did Switch Purse begin?

Back in 2009, I was shopping for a purse and found one I loved in both brown and black. I wanted both, but buying two just was not in my budget. In that moment, the idea for Switch Purse was born - out of necessity, practicality, and a love for style.

Years later, that idea has grown into what Switch Purse is today: a brand that continues to evolve with the needs of our customers - those who value fashion, function, and versatility.

A Reversible Approach

Designed to do more than one thing.

At Switch Purse, we believe in a “reversible approach” to design by creating accessories that serve more than one purpose. We also believe in giving thrifted jackets and t-shirts a second life through upcycling, all while celebrating creativity and fashion.

Fashion

Color, print, texture, and personality shape each handmade piece.

Function

Bag shapes are chosen for everyday carry, comfort, and practical use.

Second Life

Thrifted jackets, t-shirts, and fabric finds can become something fresh and new.

What We Make

Original, practical, handmade, and stylish.

Our collection currently includes reversible sling bags, band purses, and bucket bags. We also offer clutches featuring two fabric styles, as well as thrifted jean jackets that we transform into something fresh, unique, and new.

From Jill

We hope you love our original, practical, handmade, and stylish products as much as we love creating them.

If you ever need us, we’d love to hear from you!
