⚠️ Possible train strike from Wednesday morning A train strike may begin at 06:00 on Wed, 2 Sept if mediation doesn't lead to an agreement. It is not yet known exactly which departures to and from Lillestrøm could be affected, so check your journey before leaving and allow some extra travel time.

We deliberately kept the number limited to avoid unnecessary production. If you get one, use it, reuse it and take it on plenty of adventures - above and under the sea. 🌊 A collaboration we’re genuinely proud of!

Production happens at Bokhari’s weaving mill in Pakistan, where most craftspeople are women. Right next door is the LAMS school, helping provide education for employees’ children. The bags are made from 100% recycled material.

For their production, we teamed up with Bokhari - a Norwegian social enterprise combining Scandinavian design with Pakistani craftsmanship and creating safe, decent jobs for more than 450 women and men. 💙
