Driven by her passion for creating bags that simplify life rather than complicate it, Montemaré was founded by Kate Nunnally, an Alabama native.

As a solo female traveler, Kate prioritized incorporating discreet safety features into her designs while ensuring practicality and elegance. Every detail was purposefully and thoughtfully designed, from lightweight vegan leather construction and the inclusion of a discreet safety whistle to the addition of metal feet for cleanliness and RFID-blocking capabilities to promote security. Each detail was meticulously hand-selected to make Montemaré bags functional, secure, and versatile.
