Go-to bag

Honestly, just a great everyday bag, super sturdy, doesn’t mark easily and easy to clean. Not structured at all so can be stored anywhere which I really like. Interior loop for keys is a dream if you have a carabiner. Had a fair few compliments already!!

Great bag

At first it feels a bit stiff, but it breaks in nicely after a few wears. The capacity is fantastic—perfect for daily essentials and great for travel.
I tested it in heavy rain (even though it's only rated as water-resistant for light rain— got caught in the rain). The material seemed very wet, but the contents inside stayed mostly dry, with just a slight bit of humidity.
It’s amazing to have a high-quality bag that’s also locally produced in a sustainable, ethical way
Thank you <3

Lovely sturdy bag

I'm really happy with this messenger bag! The dark olive color is stylish and versatile, and the textile feels high-quality and durable. The bag is sturdy and well-made, perfect for daily use. I also love the matching inner bags—they add great organization and complement the design perfectly. Highly recommend!

Useful bag

Used as an overnight bag for a quick trip to York. Everything fitted in well. It was lightweight and compact.
Worth the money to know it was made fairly.

Perfect bag !!

A very, very good bag to have, use it every day and everywhere , it's so good. Very light and with a good shoulderband on it. I have the olive and the blue one so I can change, very nice the two bags in it and the keyholder.
A perfect bag, thank you.

Water Resistant

Water-resistant means that the material or product can resist the penetration of water to some degree, but not entirely. It can withstand light rain or water splashes for a short time, but prolonged exposure to water or heavy rain can seep through the material.

Reproofable

This product can be reproofed using a suitable spray in order to make the product water resistant again and ensure it's longevity. We reccomend doing this every few months or after any particularly heavy downpours.

Free From Forever Chemicals

Forever chemicals, also known as PFAS (Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances), are synthetic compounds commonly used in waterproofing that persist indefinitely in the environment.
While they're effective at repelling water, these chemicals accumulate in soil, water systems, and living organisms, causing long-term environmental damage and potential health risks.

FAQs

Waxed cotton offers several unique advantages: it's biodegradable, repairable, ages beautifully with a unique patina, and can be maintained indefinitely through reproofing. Unlike synthetic materials that might end up in landfills when their waterproofing fails, waxed cotton gets better with age and proper care.

Water-resistant and waterproof are terms used to describe how well a material or product can resist water. The main difference between the two is the level of protection they offer against water.

Water-resistant means that the material or product can resist the penetration of water to some degree, but not entirely. It can withstand light rain or water splashes for a short time, but prolonged exposure to water or heavy rain can seep through the material and damage the contents of the item.

Waterproof, on the other hand, means that the material or product is entirely impervious to water and will not allow any water to penetrate. It is designed to withstand heavy rain, submersion in water, or other harsh weather conditions without allowing any water to seep through.
