Ucon Acrobatics Hajo Backpack

Ucon Acrobatics is a Berlin-based lifestyle brand established in 2001 by Jochen Smuda and Martin Fussenegger. The brand is widely recognized for its minimalist, urban aesthetic and a strong commitment to sustainability. The Hajo series, seen in the image, is one of their most iconic designs, featuring a characteristic roll-top closure and a sleek, waterproof finish. The logo visible on the strap is the brand's signature minimalist seal.

While the brand's creative and design heart remains in Berlin, Germany, the manufacturing of their backpacks is conducted in China. Specifically, they work with specialized production facilities in Quanzhou, Fujian province, as well as Shenzhen and Guangzhou. The company emphasizes a 'triple minimum' philosophy—minimalist design, minimal emissions, and minimal impact—which led them to become a certified B Corp. The brand remains independently owned by its original founders.
