Backpacks shaped by time

  • • Tomás & Arancha set up Pohorylle together
  • • They seek to make their creations long lasting
  • • They came to the profession following diverse experiences

Pohorylle’s bags and backpacks come into their own with time. Arancha Enríquez and Tomás López design and make them in such a way, that it is the wearing and use of them that gives them character. Their collections are handcrafted to last, The Originals and 1/1 collections have a lifetime guarantee. Arancha is inspired by painting and photography whilst Tomás is inspired by architecture and electronic music. It is this mix of inspiration which results in the unique Pohorylle bags. Haste has no place in their creative process. They carefully select materials and providers, 90 percent are local, and take the time to explain how they have been made to everyone who enters their shops.

Poho colours

Through the Poho collection, Pohorylle brings technology and tradition together. On the one hand, a technical fabric for the outside and on the other, for the lining, a quality denim, woven by one of the most recognised houses in the world. As in the rest of the collection, all unnecessary elements have been eliminated, achieving a backpack that is comfortable, light, resistant and functional.

The Original Collection

The bags of the Original Collection are individually handcrafted, slowly and without haste, this is the philosophy at Pohorylle. In this collection Tomás López has worked with high quality materials. Materials sourced from small suppliers, family companies that continue to maintain the business and traditions of their predecessors. The bags are made from waxed canvas with a weaving and waxing that makes them resistant to water.

Poho bag

Do not be fooled by its size, this bag holds much more than it seems to. Wallet, mobile phone, charger, keys, notepad, and toiletry bag; it fits all the basics you need to go for a walk or have a drink. This bag becomes an inseparable companion for every day. It is also light and incredibly comfortable.

The 1/1 collection

Each backpack or bag in this collection is a unique and exclusive piece, numbered by hand inside and built with the idea that it will accompany you for a lifetime. The collection is made with canvas from old military bags, special fabrics that are no longer manufactured and highly selected new fabrics. These materials are carefully redesigned the workshop.

Poho Friedmann

Pohorylle’s Friedmann backpack is stripped down to its bare essentials. Inside, it simply has two internal pockets to store your keys, wallet and mobile phone, everything else is free space to put in it what you need. And if you can't live without your laptop, a 13.3-inch computer fits perfectly.
