In Spanish, mochila means knapsack or backpack. With their beautiful colours and patterns, we think they are more like functional works of art, making the perfect alternative to a regular everyday purse or tote.
Ours are handmade in partnership with Mochila Market, a social enterprise located in Chorrera, Colombia - about an hour’s drive from our founder’s home town of Barranquilla.
Each mochila is unique and depending upon its size, takes its weaver on average between 10-16 days to complete.
Made of cotton and natural fibres, our Fair Trade mochilas are durable and meant to be used every day - as a purse, shopping or beach bag, laptop tote...whatever you can imagine!
This bag measures 8.5" x 11" with a 39" long strap.
Machine wash separately in cold water and lay flat to dry.
SIZING GUIDEI love this bag!!!!!!
purchased this bag for my wife who was looking for a handmade alternative to animal skin bags. Ends up it was the perfect purchase - the quality is amazing and it's roomy enough to be a purse/laptop bag or to even use on an overnight trip. It's become her go-to. I would recommend this as a great gift.
