ABOUT US

About Missiris Montréal

Missiris Montréal is not just a handbag brand — it’s a statement.
Founded in 2022 by Aïsha Temfack, a CPA, mother, and fashion enthusiast, Missiris was born out of a simple but powerful question:
Why are women expected to choose between beauty, practicality, durability, and affordability when it comes to handbags?

At Missiris, we believe you deserve all four — no compromises.

Our vegan leather bags are thoughtfully designed to be timeless in quality, elegant in design, functional for real life, and accessible in price. Each piece is crafted to empower ambitious, stylish women who want to stand out — and feel special — every single day.

But Missiris is more than fashion. We are a purpose-driven brand with a mission to uplift women here, in Canada, while creating lasting impact abroad. A portion of every sale supports young girls in Africa who are victims of forced marriage, helping them reclaim their freedom and future.

From the boardroom to brunch, Missiris bags are worn by confident women across the country — and backed by nothing but 5-star reviews.

We’re not here to follow trends.
We’re here to redefine what modern luxury looks and feels like — inclusive, practical, and bold.

Welcome to Missiris Montréal.
Luxury made for you.
Luxury with impact.

OUR VALUES

Quality: MISSIRIS will not offer any product that is not of superior and durable quality.

Exceptional customer experience: Whether it's our customer service, our packaging or browsing our website, we want to offer you an experience that you will remember and that you will want to share.

Honesty and transparency: MISSIRIS undertakes to demonstrate this at all times to customers.

OUR MANUFACTURING PROCESS

Conception : All of our bags are designed in Montreal, with clumsy drawings and instructions from our founder. Samples are then made, tested and modified until the perfect bag is obtained. This can often take several iterations but nothing is too perfect for you!

Materials: We are constantly looking for innovations in this area, to offer materials as durable as real leather (which we do not use for animal protection reasons) but which remain affordable for you. The material that meets these criteria for now is polyurethane (PU leather), a vegan leather that is especially resistant to moisture, heat and light. So you will never have to worry about the quality and durability of your bag.

In the future, we want to go even further by using plant-based vegan leathers such as pineapple, grape, or even apple peel fibers…Your support will be needed to achieve this!

Factory: We would love to give you a bag that was built entirely in Montreal, and maybe one day we'll make it happen, but for now, your wallet would suffer a lot. Our manufacturing is therefore done in Asia, but we have made it a point of honor to select a factory that puts people at the center of everything! Our factory employs unemployed people and provides them with free housing, free meals and free education for their children if they need it and ensures that they work under fair conditions. Our factory also strives to use recycled materials and prevent waste as much as possible.
