A briefcase that actually does the job
When it comes to bag design and build quality, laptop bags are usually right near the bottom of the scale. They’re made from flimsy materials, are uncomfortable to carry, and look smart for about two weeks before they get scuffed and battered by the extremely modest demands of the daily commute. Friends, there is another way, and that way is the GO briefcase from Sandqvist. That dedicated laptop pocket (fits machines up to 16 inches) keeps your tech secure and easily accessible, while the multiple inner compartments and zip pockets mean you can stay organised without playing pocket roulette every time you need a pen. The minimalist design won't look out of place in the boardroom, but the water-resistant recycled polyester construction means it can handle your daily commute – whether that's cycling through London drizzle or playing sardines on the Tube. The trolley sleeve makes airport travel a breeze, and at 15 litres it's perfectly sized for your work essentials without becoming unwieldy.

- Ethically Sourced Materials: Sandqvist is aggressively reducing the environmental impact of their products. This includes a commitment to only using organic cotton and synthetic materials containing recycled fibres. For leather, only hides treated in tanneries rated Gold or Silver by the Leather Working Group for their environmental status can be used. Also, only leather that is a by-product from the meat and dairy industry can be used.
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.
