About Us
At Pata Life, we believe in creating pieces that are more than just products—they’re stories. Born from a love of travel, culture, and craftsmanship, our brand blends global inspiration with timeless design to craft accessories and apparel that make a statement.
From the rugged elegance of Argentina to the sophisticated charm of Europe, every piece reflects the experiences and places that have shaped us. Whether it’s our handcrafted leather bags, belts, gaucho-inspired vests, or standout jackets, Pata Life designs are made for those who embrace individuality and value quality.
As a female-led brand, we’re committed to empowering others and making a difference. A portion of our proceeds is donated year-round to University Hospital Austral in Pilar, supporting a program that provides mammograms for early breast cancer detection. Thanks to your support, women who couldn’t otherwise afford this essential care are given the chance to prioritize their health.
At Pata Life, we celebrate bold living, meaningful design, and the power of community. We invite you to explore our collections and find pieces that resonate with your story.
Pata Life—crafted for the fearless, worn for the journey, and driven by purpose.
We Make Impact
This is what Pata Lifestyle is about: helping women, help women.
Sylvia Kampshoff, Founder.
The Project
Breast cancer has touched my life in many ways. It was discovered in both my mother and mother-in-law and was responsible for the death of a dear friend’s mother. For this and other reasons, I have been compelled to do what I can to reduce breast cancer’s death toll. When I discovered how horrific the numbers are in Argentina - Argentine women suffer the second-highest breast cancer fatality rate in the world - I knew I could make the most impact for women there. Pata has given me an opportunity to help women and their families live longer, healthier lives.
Our First Donation
Thanks to the help of our customers we are so happy that we were able to make our first donations of Mammograms and Ultrasounds to the University Hospital Austral in Pilar. We had a very emotional day in Pilar and also were blessed to get the chance to meet with some of the women who already received our donated Mammograms and Ultrasounds at Posta Sanitaria Las Lilas in Pilar, Argentina.
Our Second Donation
To our valued customer. Your support made a real difference. Thanks for helping us make a positive impact through our donations. We appreciate you so much! We almost doubled our mammogram donation from the previous year, enabling us to extend support for early breast cancer detection to even more women who might not have had access otherwise. A special shoutout to my six-year-old daughter, Lottie, who proudly joined the cause by donating all her savings from the year.
Our Third Mammogram Donation
We are beyond blessed to share that our third mammogram donation at Posta Sanitaria Las Lilas took place in November 2024, and this time, we were fortunate to have my husband Philipp by my side. Dr. Claudia and her incredible team continue to inspire us with their dedication and care, and we are so grateful for the opportunity to contribute to their work.
Each year, we’ve had the chance to check in with Dr. Claudia, understand their needs, and find new ways to support their vital mission. Our commitment to this cause remains strong, and we are excited to continue helping in the years to come.
Thank you all for your unwavering support—your generosity makes all of this possible. We couldn’t do it without you! 💖
