About Vex

Over the last two decades, Vex has created countless handmade latex pieces and we have had the opportunity to see our clients unleash themselves. There is no greater feeling than seeing the right person discover latex. Witnessing the moment that Vex latex elevates our customer’s style, individuality, and uniqueness is what we live for. It’s always a stunning and unpredictable process!

Vex style is fashion with a hint of fetish. Our pieces are elegant and sexy, blending the classic with irresistible allure. Each Vex piece is made with timelessness in mind: with the proper care, it is forever captivating.

Our mission with Vex is simple, but not small: create handmade, exceptional work with a personal touch. From the quality materials we use to the handwritten note Laura includes in each package, each step of the process is inspired by a dedication to quality and to the moments of personal discovery Vex pieces inspire.
