Rowdy Retailer, Rowdy BAGS, UNITED KINGDOM

Rowdy was born in 2012 with a simple yet powerful vision: to create durable, stylish bags that stand the test of time. What started as a single rucksack design for students has grown into a diverse range of handcrafted leather goods. For over a decade, we've been proudly crafting our products in Cape Town, South Africa, combining traditional artisanship with contemporary design.

At Rowdy, we believe in embracing basic goodness. This philosophy permeates everything we do - from our ethical production practices to our timeless designs. Our approach is rooted in sustainability, fair labour practices, and a deep respect for craftsmanship. We believe that a great bag should not only carry your belongings but also carry a story- one of quality, durability, and conscious consumption.

Our Repair-for-Life Promise is a commitment to longevity and sustainability. At Rowdy, we believe in the enduring value of leather goods and their potential to last for decades with proper care.

Every Rowdy bag comes with this promise:

  1. We'll repair any manufacturing defects (stitching, zipper, faulty fittings) for the life of the product.
  2. For local customers, repairs can be done at our Cape Town factory (drop-off or shipping available).
  3. For international customers, we'll cover repair costs with pre-approved service providers.

This promise encourages a 'reuse' mentality, promoting sustainable consumption over fast fashion

Note: Our warranty doesn't cover natural wear and tear, canvas bags, inner linings, or superficial damage like stains.
