The Landö backpack
Every detail finished by hand
The Landö backpack is made in Sweden from 18 oz waxed cotton canvas and 3.5 mm vegetable-tanned leather from Tärnsjö Garveri. Every leather part is cut, bevelled, waxed and polished by hand, then fixed with solid copper rivets set by hand. The back panel is padded with compressed sheep wool from Woolpower in Östersund,
and the base is reinforced with a double layer, built to last for years
Each backpack is numbered and registered to its first owner, and backed by our lifetime warranty.

Designed and made in Sweden
Simple. Functional. Built to last. Designed and handmade in Småland, Sweden, in waxed canvas and leather. Timeless gear, made to be used for years and passed on.

Woven in Dundee since 1864
Our 18 oz waxed canvas comes from Halley Stevensons in Dundee, Scotland, who have been making waxed cotton since the 1864. Stiff and water-repellent when new, it softens with use and takes on the marks of every trip.

Leather that ages with you.
Our bags and leather goods are made with vegetable-tanned leather from Tärnsjö Garveri, tanning leather in Sweden since 1873. Used every day, it darkens and develops a patina that is yours alone.

Gloves made for real work.
Every pair is made for hard use outdoors, in full-grain cowhide, elk, bison or goat. Some are unlined for feel and dexterity, others lined with Kevlar or wool for protection and warmth. Firm at first, they soften slowly and take the shape of your hands.

Built to be repaired, not replaced.
Every leather detail is cut, bevelled, waxed and polished by hand, then set with solid copper rivets. Nothing is hidden or sealed shut, so a worn strap can be replaced and a seam can be resewn. Built to be mended and kept, and backed by a lifetime warranty against defects in materials and workmanship.

Care for your leather
Leather that dries out loses its strength. Fibres stiffen, the surface cracks, and over time the material gives way where it is used the most. When your leather starts to look or feel dry, our leather wax restores what it needs: rich nourishment that sinks deep into the leather, keeping it supple, strong and protected for years. A thin layer, worked in by hand, is all it takes. Look after it, and it will look after you.
