Steel Pony

Steel Pony, established in 1992, is a line of clothing and handbags that are 100% made in America. Each is dyed by hand and individually crafted. The pieces are made in the heart of Fabric District of Philadelphia in a studio on 4th Street. We use only eco-friendly materials, including California-grown cotton and Massachusetts-sourced dyes. The fabrics are knitted in North Carolina and upstate New York, and the finishing touches are sewn in Philadelphia. Joanne Litz and Dennis Wolk are the husband-and-wife couple behind Steel Pony. Joanne is the mastermind behind the clothing collection, while Wolk __ the bags. Their roots have always been in fashion; Litz as a successful Design Director and Wolk as a display manager for storefronts that included Bloomingdale’s, Strawbridge’s, and more. After years of seeing first-hand how fashion products deteriorated the environment, the duo teamed up to launch Steel Pony in 1992, using only eco-friendly processes, fabrics, and dyes. In spring 2015, they opened their first store in the heart of the Fabric District in Philadelphia.
