10 Amazing Russian Bag Brands You Definitely Didn’t Know About

A bag is not just a necessary accessory, it is a statement item that can tell almost everything about its owner: from social status and financial situation to musical preferences and lifestyle. We put our whole lives in this bag every day. We carefully or, conversely, carelessly fill the accessory with meaning and even character.

Therefore, the choice of such an important thing should be approached with special responsibility. It’s like you’re choosing a partner for life. By the way, this is true to some extent. A good bag will serve you faithfully for more than one season and will help you when you need it most.

But it doesn’t necessarily have to have a large, recognizable logo and number sticker. Our fashion department suggests taking a different path and choosing a bag from a cool Russian brand. Believe me, there really are a lot of them. We’ve rounded up 10 of the most valuable and frankly most loved ones.

Moveli

Travel inspires. And these are not just words. The idea of ​​​​creating a brand came to Moveli’s founder during one of his trips. “Our story started with travel bags; I tried to create an ideal option that would be an indispensable and aesthetic part of every trip,” he says. However, do not think that the Moveli collection consists only of practical and spacious accessories. Designers of the brand recommend paying attention to woven leather bags, knitted and decorated with rhinestones handbags, and ideal backpacks.

Another Russian brand that focuses primarily on quality and creates a new interpretation of the classics. The main feature of CNS is the number of colors available for each bag model. The collection includes trendy silver options and plain black options. By the way, this brand will definitely appeal to all adherents of minimalism, since there are no catchy logos or flashy prints on the bags.

Arny Praht

Anyone in search of eternal trends should visit St. The St. Petersburg brand should meet Arny Praht. Designers skillfully play with catwalk trends and create a unique product, even at very affordable prices. The Arny Praht collection features both a timeless base and ornately shaped accents. We haven’t seen anything like this anywhere else yet, and that’s encouraging.

Fiore Bags

It turns out that Fiore Bags would not have come into being if it wasn’t for one single incident. Initially, the founder of the brand was engaged in the sale of genuine leather. But one day, part of one of the batches remained in the warehouse. It was decided to make passport covers from it. That’s how it all started. You can now find Old Coin style bags as well as backpacks, suitcases and leather accessories in the Fiore Bag collection.

Pepper

The next Russian brand will definitely be appreciated by all fans of irony. A bag shaped like a black caviar box? Easily. Matryoshka doll-shaped cross body? Yes please. But do not think that the Pepfer collection consists only of accent models. There is a section on the site codenamed “For Every Day” where you can find all the necessary information.

Yulia Kutuzova

Jenёk

Russian brand Jenеk (never miss the letter e) appeared in 2022, but has already managed to win the love, recognition and respect of Russian fashionistas and street style heroes. The name of the brand expresses how designer Zhenya Petrova is remembered by her relatives and emphasizes how personal the project is. By the way, each Jenёk handbag has a passport and an individual identification number (such a serious approach). And St. It is hand-made to order at our own production facility in St. Petersburg.

I’m Making Bags

If you follow a few Russian influencers, we’re sure you’ve seen the iconic I Make Bags Seva bag. Initially, the founder of the brand, Ksenia Lapshova, came up with this model to reduce the amount of waste in production (special respect for this). The truth is that all parts of the bag are actually leftovers from the production of other models. “This was the solution to my great pain – I can’t understand how even small pieces of material fly into the trash,” the founder says in an interview with Sobaka. The Seva model is now offered on the website with different color and size options.

Silk

Russian brand Shelk will definitely appeal to those who always have nothing to fit into their bag. The brand’s collection is still small, but it is quite high quality and well thought out. The designer of the brand recommends us to buy a backpack or a roomy bag, ideal for travel. Our favorite of the collection is the baby blue model.
