About us
OUR STORY
Our story began in 2013 in a small studio in Bath, UK. A love of nature and a passion for technology bought together a small collective of engineers, designers and environmentalists. Our passion for unique design and collaboration brought our vision, and bags, to life.
Inspired by nature, we design and make bags that combine natural materials, timeless design and boutique craftmanship. We believe in quality, care, and creating unique pieces that everyone can enjoy. Colourful, creative, and inspired by what we see everyday, each bag represents what we love about the world we live in. We hope they’ll inspire you too.
At Kovered, we craft bags that tell a story—one rooted in the timeless beauty of nature and inspired by Britain’s rich heritage.
We believe in creating more than just bags. Our designs embody sustainability, functionality, and a touch of nostalgia. Made from reclaimed leather and durable waxed canvas (our collection of bags made from recycled plastic bottles is coming soon), each bag is designed to stand the test of time, blending vintage charm with modern practicality.
A TRIBUTE TO BRITAIN'S RIVERS
Each of our bags bears the name of a river flowing through the heart of the UK—a reflection of our deep connection to this land and its natural beauty. From the winding Humber to the serene Taw.
Just like these waterways, our bags are built to journey with you, adapting to every twist and turn, and carrying your essentials through life’s adventures.
A COMMITMENT TO BRITISH VALUES
As a British brand, we embrace the principles of craftsmanship, sustainability, and authenticity. By repurposing materials and minimizing waste, we ensure that every Kovered bag not only serves you but also honours the planet. This is our way of preserving the landscapes and waterways that inspire us for future generations to enjoy.
DESIGNED FOR LIFE'S JOURNEYS
Whether you’re commuting in the city or exploring the great outdoors, Kovered bags are made to travel with you. With thoughtful designs that balance style and practicality, each piece is as versatile as it is timeless.
Why we do it
We're passionate about enhancing lifestyles with beautiful design, whilst having as little impact on the environment as possible.
Re-use, recycle and repurpose is central to our business so we consider sustainability in every design, operation and delivery decision we make.
Fast delivery
We aim to dispatch all orders placed before 3pm UK time the same day (Monday-Friday).
Shipping can be upgraded if you are in a rush for that special occasion. If you have any other requests please let us know.
The Kovered way
We pride ourselves on being honest and open, and that starts with our customers. We add the personal touch of good old fashioned customer service built on fantastic quality, manufacturing and sustainability.
Improve with age
Creases enhance their character, and scratches add personality. Kovered bags are more than just a bag, they tell the story of your adventures and experiences.
