The making of our crossbody bag

September 17, 2016

Our banana fiber bags are woven by hand and put together one piece at a time. They become all the more special once you know who made them and how they are produced.

Our banana fiber product range is produced by a small cooperative of women in rural South India. The focus of the cooperative is improving the living conditions for women and rope makers in the village, as well as education for them and their children.

The cooperative is entirely sustained by the sales of their products. It takes one full day to produce the banana fiber case for our crossbody bag.

Finding the perfect match

This is Moin, our leather guru! He can make anything, anywhere.

Our bags are carefully stitched and fully lined with 100% Indian cotton in five different choices. A quality zipper and divider will ensure you keep your phone, keys and other small items separate.
