Designers Veronica Pesantes and Jonnyka Bormann became best friends while doodling in a high school art class. Like many suburban teenage girls, they shared a love of boys, indie music, fashion and fun. They also had big time wanderlust and longed for a life filled with art, travel, meaning, and adventure. Now they have joined forces in a venture that encompasses what brought them together in the very beginning: creativity, travel, meaningful pursuits and serious love of fashion. The Onikas, as they were known in high school, is their love child to you.

Onikas is a sustainable textile company that collaborates with global artisans to produce beautiful goods. They believe in preserving cultural heritage by supporting the production of traditional crafts like the art of block printing and weaving. They encourage and embody a lifestyle of slow living in consumption, production, and being.
