We took our time with the design and development – real slow fashion. To the best of our knowledge and conscience, we used materials that currently have the best eco-balance for us.
But we continue to develop and find new, promising approaches. In the future, you will be informed about every step we take and we would be happy if you actively participate in the development.
All components come from either Germany or Europe – except for the YKK zips and the pineapple leaves from Pinatex. But we want to change that too in the future.
In March we start our crowd-founding campaign. After a long development and a lot of investments, we need you to get started with our products.
More about this here soon.
In the future, we not only want to survive in the market with our minimalist designs, but also maintain our collections. We create classics and not fashion trends.
Only the optimization is in the foreground. If we have a better option soon than to, for example, Pinatex, you will receive our backpacks in this variant in a timely manner.
With our bags made of Seaqual we want to offer our simplest companions. The main material is Seaqual and the other components include Kii buckles and coconut fibre.

The three bags made of leather are for people who don’t want to do without this material. However, it was important to us that bags made of new leather are not used. We want to protect animals and the environment. That’s why we offer Kii leather – a completely upcycled version that saves more than 10,000 litres of water.
