Highway
is a full line of designer shoulder bags, laptop
bags, handbags and wallets.
In the Winter of 2000, long-time New York fashion
and fabric designer Jem Filippi, inspired by street
fashion, fine art and industrial design, established
Hiponica---her original line of bags and accessories.
Jem’s design-conscious retail vision culminated
by opening her Hiponica accessories store in Nolita,
Manhattan’s local fashion neighborhood.
In the Spring of 2005, the Hiponica store and brand
name evolved into Highway, with a strong following
of local and international hipsters.
Highway represents functionality, creative textures
and sophisticated colors. Highway bags are primarily
made from fine Japanese nylons with leather accents
and touches of artful embroideries or prints.
Highway is a hip designer accessory brand now found
in over 100 specialty and boutique stores nationwide. |
