Our Story

I'm Sixtine. I left Paris with my husband for a simpler life in Abu Dhabi — and somewhere along the way, we adopted Capri.

Capri is named after the island we fell in love with years ago. She is the reason Rimal exists.

When I started looking for a harness for her, I couldn't find anything that was both beautiful and suited to life here. Everything was either generic, poorly made, or designed for a climate nothing like the Gulf. Metal hardware that burns at 45°C. Neoprene that traps heat against a dog's skin. Brands that had never once thought about Middle East.

I spent years as a lawyer before deciding that life was too short not to build something I truly believed in and Rimal Atelier was born.

Rimal ( رمال ) means sands in Arabic. It is our home, our landscape, our starting point. Every harness we make is engineered for this climate, designed with intention, and born in the city we now call home.

This is for Capri. And for every dog who deserves better.
