“We’re making going out and looking great together both easy and fun,” says Jon Pokress, vice president of marketing. “We’d like to think we’re also adding a whole new dimension to the parent-pet relationship, but we’ll settle for great aesthetics.”

Onleash accessories are offered as three and four-piece sets, consisting of a collar, leash and a choice of a handbag, scarf or ultrasuede-lined cuff (wristband). The line includes animal print ultrasuedes, a collection of Parisian tweeds and textured checks and a contemporary collection of paisleys and geometrics.

Onleash began developing its products in 2005 and last April, they launched their website www.onleash.com.

“We’ve had a very positive response,” Pokress says. “Women are looking for ways to have fun. It’s one more way to look good.”

Onleash is currently developing a male accessory line, including a messenger bag for men on the go.
