Philosophy
Scottish waxed cotton bag manufacturer, hand-sewn in Glasgow. Each piece develops a unique patina over time. Austrian COBRA buckles, durable materials, local production.
History
Founded in 2010 in Glasgow by Alec Farmer, an art student looking for a cycling messenger bag, Trakke was born from discovering Halley Stevensons, the world's finest waxed cotton mill, just 50 miles away. Stainless steel COBRA buckles from Wales, webbing from Derbyshire, waxed cotton from Dundee: every component is sourced in the UK. Bags are hand-sewn in Glasgow and develop a unique patina over time.
