The epitome of Swedish simplicity, this vegan version of Sandqvist's Dante bag is a deceptively spacious urban daypack with a zipped roll-top closure. Featuring clean lines and metal hardware, it'll swallow up to 23 litres of stuff, with a quick-access external zip compartment, inner slip pocket and a sleeve for a 15" laptop. Made in a mix of organic cotton and recycled polyester, you get the durability of a synthetic with the soft touch of cotton. The dyeing process means that with time and use, the Dante will develop that slightly faded look of a life well lived. This vegan model switches the leather elements of the standard Dante for durable webbing, and as a karmic bonus you also get a couple of little extras. They've added a useful webbing grab-handle on the side, and coated the front and base with a silk print treatment that ups the water-resistance.

Fusing the style and creative energy of the Stockholm archipelago with the hard-bitten adventure of the Scandinavian mountains, Sandqvist's beautiful packs are as Swedish as cinnamon buns and that funny cod roe in squeezy tubes.
Founded in 2004 by three childhood mates living in Stockholm, the idea was to create bags that weren't tied to a single environment. Razor-sharp minimalist design to look stylish in the city, teamed with technical features and fabrics to perform in the backcountry. We could all do with less stuff in our lives, and Sandqvist's versatile packs will take you from fika in Södermalm to a red-painted summer cabin in the forest – all while looking just about as Grammable as it gets.
These are bags designed to do more with less – and that carries through into the materials and manufacture too. The durable polyester and nylon fabrics are 100% recycled from post-consumer or industrial waste, and supply chains are regularly audited for working conditions and environmental impact. The leather is a by-product of high-welfare Scandinavian meat and dairy herds, processed by independently certified tanneries – and in some cases they also produce vegan versions of their packs.
Speaking as inveterate Scandophiles, we reckon Sandqvist’s packs are everything gear should be. Sustainable, functional, versatile, and seriously good-looking.
