Helen Lo founded Lo & Sons in 2010 after her husband spent weeks searching for a bag her mother would love as a Mother's Day gift — and came home empty-handed. An entrepreneur with a background in finance, Helen saw a market gap for beautifully designed travel bags built around how real people actually travel. She launched the brand with her sons (hence the name) and built a loyal following among frequent travelers who appreciate function as much as form. The O.G. bag and Catalina Deluxe remain bestsellers.
