The Story Behind The Bags

We’ve teamed up with Sandstorm Kenya, a Nairobi-based company that began by crafting safari tents. When leftover canvas was turned into rugged bags, they quickly became the heart of the business and today, Sandstorm is a globally recognized symbol of Kenyan craftsmanship and purpose-driven design.

Every Sandstorm piece is handmade in small batches by a team of over 120 skilled artisans, each contributing a unique talent from beading to machine sewing. Together, we’re launching four collections of bags inspired by the lions of Amboseli and the Guardians who protect them.
