How it started

During the Covid pandemic in 2020, in the Dutch city of Breda, we started to see an increasing need for cool backpacks that could keep up with our modern dynamic lifestyle. Functional, stylish, and sustainable. We saw more and more modern and conscious individuals, constantly on the go, juggling work, sports, and travel.  

In the beginning, the search for the perfect material for our new backpack project led us down a winding path of disappointment. While we found countless options made from animal leather, Polyurethane, and nylon, none of them aligned with our values. We yearned for a material that not only exuded sophistication but also reflected our commitment to the environment.
