ES20 was founded by Emiliano Santillan in New York City in 2020. Born in the United States and raised in northern Mexico, Emiliano built his career in menswear and outerwear before answering a calling to create something more personal.

It began with a simple tote bag, crafted from fabrics and leathers that reflected both his heritage and his vision. From that first design, ES20 grew into a brand defined by timeless style and premium materials.

At its core, ES20 is about purpose and permanence, the idea that what we carry every day should be made with intention, designed to last, and crafted to feel essential.
