Impeccable craftsmanship. Utility. Longevity.
This is what we do.

Front pocket shown open, revealing a bright yellow lining, on a black and white backpack.

Front pocket

For whatever basics you want easy access to — keys, snacks, pens, or A5 notepad.

A side pocket on the rear of the backpack shows a phone popping out. The backpack is a cumin and black colour.

Quick-access pocket

Keep your phone, ID, or passport within safe reach. Spans the full width of the bag, with padding to keep it soft against your back.

Made in-house, in Sussex, to keep our footprint small, support local employment and ensure impeccable craftsmanship.

The very best materials, sourced as locally as possible.

Two bolts of waxed canvas are shown in the production studio.

Scottish waxed canvas

100% organic and fluorocarbon-free since our very first bolt.
Weatherproof, heavyweight and utterly gorgeous. Our mill has been perfecting this for over 100 years.

A g-shaped hook with an emblem of a bird closes the top of the bag.

English milled hardware

Aluminium g-hooks and brass strap adjusters. Selected for their strength and recyclability, and custom made in Cheshire. 

A vegetable-tanned leather badge is debossed with the Baxley logo.

Vegetable-tanned leather

2-3 months to dye. No toxic chemicals used or entering the waterway. Increased longevity and safely biodegradable.

(Conventional leather takes less than a day to produce, involving enormous amounts of toxic chemicals.)

Black cotton webbing is shown for a grab handle and shoulder straps of the Max backpack..

Webbing from Derbyshire

The webbing from our straps is woven in Derbyshire, keeping our footprint small and giving local employment.
