If you are looking to buy the leather jacket that you have had your sights set on for a while, Maru Guerberg is the woman you need to meet. Maru opened her leather design store 10 years ago, in 1999. After having lived internationally in Europe and the Middle East, Maru came back to Buenos Aires and continued her life-long dedication to design. She studied interior and fashion design and was one of the first people to produce designer leather goods in Buenos Aires. From the beginning, it was a unique proposal. Maru’s products have included leather shirts, tank tops, and bikinis in bright colors. She has even designed custom-made leather wedding dresses! Today, she mostly concentrates on creating original and custom-made leather jackets, bags, and accessories in exceptional colors. Her arsenal of products combined with her international clientele and two trips per year to New York City create a combination of high quality products and creative innovation.
The shop is located at the cross of Costa Rica and Armenia, on the corner of Plaza Costa Rica in Palermo. It is a modern boutique, decorated with cool lights and a staircase that takes you to the second floor of the shop and to the studio above. Maru makes creations with different textures by taking advantage of new techniques and technologies in order to create stretched Argentine leathers and printed and stamped Italian leathers. Maru’s goods are made with different types of leathers depending on the design, but because she makes a lot of her products on a bespoke and made-to-order basis, she can use any material to make any model. You can walk into the store and get inspired to make your own leather jacket, choosing the color, type of leather, lining and print. Come in to request the leather jacket of your dreams and in 2-3 days it will be ready and you’ll have just acquired the highest quality item to get in Buenos Aires. Visit
