Dooney and Bourke started in 1975 when Peter Dooney and Frederic Bourke launched two introductory products: belts with unique, vibrant colors and stripes and classic suspenders. Now, Dooney and Bourke specializes in fashion accessories, such as handbags, iPod cases, luggage, bracelets, watches, and briefcases, as well as a limited clothing line, which includes sweaters, shoes, jackets, and scarves.

 In 1981, Dooney and Bourke branched into the handbag business, releasing the Tack Case and the Equestrian Bag, made from bridle leather. Dooney and Bourke handbags are the bags that will definitely take you out of day into night. There are so many reason to love Dooney and Bourke. They distribute through Nordstrom's, Brooks Brothers, and Saks Fifth Avenue, as well as The Company Store in Norwalk, Connecticut. In 1983, their famous All-Weather Leather (AWL) handbag collection was released, featuring a duck logo. Just like the name suggests, the bags are waterproof and impervious to the elements, made of 100% cowhide. Water sheds off them like it does off a duck's back! The process of producing AWL is a secret, but a big part of it is shrinking the leather so that the pores are sealed. In 2006 and 2007, the "Emma Bag," a small, oval bag, named after Emma Roberts, was created. In 2007, Hayden Panettiere, an actress on the television series "Heroes," designed a new bag for Dooney and Bourke.
