Gootium

While I was volunteering abroad on a rural farm in Australia, I spotted a farmer's canvas bag that had marks and lines from years of use, but it didn't look tatty. It was simple but full of charm, every stitch and buckle was crafted beautifully. Inspired by the craftsmanship of this bag and the ancient fabrics it was made from, I followed my heart and founded Gootium when I moved back home. The meaning of our company name, derived from the latin term ‘otium', is what me and my team stand for - life spent simply with the best things alongside you. We want our bags to last a lifetime, so we make them with all of the little details that make your life easier. Gootium canvas bags are made with love in a workshop with over 20 year's experience.
