Why Hemp?
The fibre that gets better with every mile
Hemp is naturally antibacterial, UV-resistant and three times stronger than cotton. It softens as you carry it and actually gains strength when wet — which is why it has outlasted every synthetic for thousands of years. Grown without pesticides and fed by rain, it treads lighter from the very first thread.
Meet The Artisans
Hand-loomed in the Kathmandu Valley
Every bag is woven and stitched by artisan families whose craft spans generations. We work with the same workshops year after year, paying above-market wages in safe, well-lit spaces. The small irregularities you'll find are the signature of a human hand — never a machine.
Built To Last
Designed to be repaired, not replaced
Solid brass hardware, double-stitched stress points and a reinforced base mean this is a bag for decades, not seasons. Should it ever need attention, our lifetime repairs keep it on the road and out of landfill. Buy once, carry forever.

Really nicely made and comfortable
“Really nicely made and comfortable. My only issue is unfortunately they aren’t very durable if you stand on a few pebbles in the path, it punctures the sole very easily even after just one use which is a shame. Maybe it was my lack of common sense, but I thought the added recycled tire to these would make them more durable so I cannot give a full 5 stars. However, if you want sandals that’s more for lounging about, or going to the beach or grasslands then these are perfect! They’re breathable and brilliant to use when the weather is hot.”
