Greyslater is a Chicago-based eco-boutique dedicated to supporting local artisans, small businesses, and manufacturers of made in the USA products. Founded in 2011 by friends Katya Siddall and Natalie Slater, Greyslater features hand-picked, sustainably-made reusables that are as beautiful as they are functional. 

Katya and Natalie met in 2011 and quickly became a modern Odd Couple. With a background in finance, Katya has learned to love a great suit, whereas Natalie can often be found in gym shoes and a vintage Iron Maiden t-shirt. After sharing an office, they quickly bonded over their love of donuts, lady wrestlers and Earth-friendly products that actually look cool. 

As different as they may appear, Natalie and Katya share a passion for sustainable, stylish products - especially when they're made in the USA. This passion has driven the two to cultivate a collection of home goods, personal care products and lunch items that meet their strict standards. They decided early on to only choose products that everyone can love--not just the already environmentally conscious--with an emphasis on functionality and outstanding design.
