The British Bag Company is a manufacturer of quality bags, luggage and accessories that are ideal companions both in the city and in the country. Focused on timelessness and durability, the brand’s collections are inspired by the company’s British heritage.
origins
The British Bag Company is part of the Arnold Wills Company, founded in 1946, a family run business known for manufacturing the finest leather goods. The brand’s headquarters are still in Uppingham, England, where a new purpose-built factory opened in 1951 to accommodate the growing workforce.
evolution
The Arnold Willis company soon established a reputation for quality products and superior workmanship. The British Bag Company’s collections are crafted from woven fabrics, waxed canvas and leather, which the brands say come from the best mills and tanneries in the world. All leather is also dyed exclusively with vegetable extracts, which means less impact on the environment.
News
The range of the British Bag Company today includes travel bags, backpacks, handbags, wallets and accessories for women and men as well as waterproof dry bags. The Harris Tweed collection is particularly popular, a high-quality tweed fabric that is handwoven, finished and manufactured by islanders from pure new wool in Scotland’s Outer Hebrides.
The products are available from various retailers in the UK and from the company’s online shop.
