Light, clean, and deeply crafted. The Kenyah is a convertible sling and backpack handwoven by the indigenous Dayak people of Borneo — in ivory rattan with light leather trim, a leather drawstring closure, and a batik print lining from Java. The natural tone lets the weave speak for itself: centuries of technique, sustainably sourced, and made to last.

The Story Behind It
The Kenyah people are one of Borneo’s great Dayak tribes — master weavers whose craft was beginning to fade until a renewed global interest created sustainable livelihoods and helped revive these ancient traditions. Rattan is harvested from one of the only forests in the world where sustainable harvesting actively preserves the ecosystem. Every bag carries that legacy forward.
Style It Your Way
The ivory tone is effortlessly versatile — wear it with linen, cotton, or printed fabrics for a clean, natural look. Carry it as a sling for a hands-free day or convert it to a backpack for longer adventures. A bag that goes everywhere and means something.
