Sandqvist bags and accessories

Sandqvist is a prominent Swedish brand renowned for its minimalist Scandinavian design and strong commitment to sustainability. Founded in 2004 in Stockholm by Anton Sandqvist, along with his brother Daniel and their childhood friend Sebastian Westin, the brand was born out of a desire for functional bags that transition seamlessly between urban city life and the rugged Swedish outdoors.

The brand's manufacturing footprint is diverse, with key production facilities located in Vietnam and India. The company places a high priority on ethical labor and environmentally friendly materials, such as organic cotton, recycled polyester, and ethically sourced leather. While much of the technical backpack production occurs in Asia, some leather goods and specific collections have historically been sourced from European factories in locations like Portugal and Poland. Sandqvist remains an independent, founder-led company headquartered in Stockholm, Sweden, and has expanded its presence globally with flagship stores in major fashion capitals like London, Paris, and Berlin.
