I got the opportunity to discover Rais Case when I attended a hand lettering workshop by Nicole Miyuki. The space was perfect for an intimate workshop. The back area is slightly separated from the main floor and allows for a great learning setting. The store itself was really neat. You can make your own leather pressed keychains and other items. I love that it's part store, part makers space. It allows for an opportunity to get creative and make some of your own items. I wish this store was closer to central San Diego so that I could visit it more easily but I'll just have to visit Oceanside to see it! read more

I got my first Rais Case for Christmas and I am OBSESSED! The Vida bag is a must have for any woman. The Vida can be worn three ways: as a cross body, a fanny pack or a clutch! The fact that you get so many uses out of it makes it worth every penny. The quality is superb. The leather is supple and soft, the detachable straps can be changed out for any of the other colors or lengths. Each bag is locally made by hand at Rais Case's Oceanside store. They also make several appearances at various pop-ups and shopping soirées. I've tried to catch them at some but I've always missed them! I wear it everywhere and I'm looking forward to purchasing another one very soon. I need one in every color . If you don't know about Rais Case, you must check out their store. As soon as you touch one of their bags, you'll fall in love with them. read more

There are a few things I am an absolute sucker for. Two of which happen to be hand-made goods, and leather. Rais Case, conveniently, is comprised of both. After searching "leathergoods" in the area, this interestingly named place popped up, and being the curious person I am decided to give it a look. Rais Case has gorgeous handbags that rival the larger companies, however have the hand-made moniker that completely separate them from anything else. If you're in the market for a bag, tote, or purse - visit everywhere else first. These bags will impress you. And for their price, they're a steal. Oddly enough, I was not looking for bags- I was looking for something to pass the time with some munchkins. Rais Case also has stations around their space where you can do crafts. We came away with a leather bracelet, two keychains, a luggage tag, and two necklaces for less than $20. And the kiddos had a blast to boot! I am loving what Oceanside is turning into, and Rais Case is only helping the state of things. read more

Rais Case - Craft station - Accessories Near Me - Oceanside, California

I love Rais Case and Julie. I have three bags from here. A messenger, a vida and a mini vida (aka a fanny pack) and people stop be to compliment me all the time. Some of My friends are a little shocked by the price but I used to occasionally splurge on a coach bag or maybe a Kate spade but no more. I'd much rather my money go to a local mama doing something creative and it's so unlikely that I'll run into someone with the same bag and again, I get so many compliments. The bags are rad and all limited addition. The space is adorable. There is a really cool and extremely affordable DIY leather work station where you can make personalized gifts. My kids love doing this and at 2-10 dollars it is an affordable outing. It's also been one of my new go to hang outs without the kids. Nothing like working with your hands to de stress and their are coffee shops on both sides so this place is basically heaven! read more

I first stumbled upon this brand about 10 years ago as a local checking out some new shops downtown. I bought a beautiful Pendleton purse and 10 years later it actually continues to age like a fine wine. Over the years I've bought a few more purses, bought the wallet (WOW at the aging with the ivory one!), some straps, some misc items (necklaces, keychains, etc) and handkerchiefs during covid. Every time I get to meet Julie or one of the shop owners, I'm met with true kindness, and an authentic interest in my life. Between it being a local business, the authenticity conveyed, and the durability of the product - It's why when I have friends visit Oside, I take them to the co-op to see for themselves. Over the last 10 years, I've had ONE singular problem with my purchases (leather strap metal component broke). Not only did Julie and her team send a fresh strap immediately - they also sent me a gift for the inconvenience, a hand-written card, and a pre-paid envelope to send the broken leather strap back to be up-cycled. Come on, does it get any better than this? Glad you asked - yes it does. Julie, in coordination with the other co-op owners often host workouts in the parking lot, share/trade events, and as of recently - a "mending matters" series where those interested can learn to fix their garments instead of throwing them away. I just can't say enough great things about this company, their products, their customer service, and how they focus on the Oside community. And obviously selfishly - all the compliments I get on my purses. read more

The bags are timeless and go with every outfit/event. I've had my bags for years and love them!!! You will not be disappointed!

I have to say I've been following RC for awhile now. I came across someone who posted how they upgraded their purse. The craftsmanship I noticed caught my eye. I always try to support local businesses as my family have several small business. I've had the coach-MK etc. bags. I have to say the quality is beyond those other makers. Another thing that had my attention was the owner a previous teacher. Being that I'm an educator- captured my heart. I visited the store on a Saturday to just check them out. I'm big on customer service. I received more help from customers than workers. I just needed additional support at the DIY table. Later on I was asked if I needed help. I made 2 keychains - I was sweating to make those. It made me appreciate handcrafted items even more. Went back the next day...got their at 2:00 - I didn't know they close a 2:00 on Sunday's. I knocked on the door and received service. Not the most cheerful young lady but I appreciate her for helping me out. I finally got my purse - I'm so happy and saved 30.00 (holiday special). I can't wait to share my purse with others. Oh they will ask!!!! Shop Local... read more

I made personalized keychains for Christmas for $2/keychain. The gifts were a hit and we enjoyed making them. I will be returning to make more gifts. The store has awesome bags. read more

LOVE LOVE LOVE these purses. They're so well made, so durable and go with everything. The owner is super creative, helpful and friendly. It's a pleasant experience shopping her goodies and I always leave happier and a little more stylish :) read more

Absolutely amazing bags. I've had my bag for almost 5 years and I still get compliments on it. Julie is amazing! Customer for life.

My seven year old daughter and I love this shop. Not only do they have gorgeous, high quality handbags, but they have thoughtfully curated items from local artisans, and an entire do-it-yourself bar that taps into your (horribly unsatisfied?) need for creative expression. Grab a coffee next door at Revolutionary Roasters and spend a few hours soaking up the handmade energy. read more

Let me start by saying the bag that I received is absolutely stunning... The gorgeous detail and gold hardware is just absolutely stunning. So this last experience did not start off so great... as I drove all the way up to their store to buy a gift for a friend and the store was closed unexpectedly! even though according to their hours on their website they should have be open. So I stood around and waited and tried to call and I could not find a number. So I wrote them an email and they quickly responded and gave me a discount on a bag (for a gift for my friend); and then gave me a candle as a gift as well. I cannot even begin to express my gratitude for the responsiveness of this dilemma. And the generosity by the owner Julie was more than I expected. Typically when customer service is not what I expect... no one seems to really care... But this is not the case with Julie. Not only does she make exceptional, beautiful and stunning hand bags... but she also has integrity as a business owner. I have been a fan of this local purse maker for several years and I will continue to be a supporter of this local business... Because of the craftsmanship and the amazing customer service that they provide. read more
