A British Original, Reimagined
The Henley Bag is a modern revival of a classic British design, first made by Putman & Sons of Henley-on-Thames, who stitched canvas marquees for the Henley Royal Regatta in the late 19th century. Using leftover tent canvas and rope, they created simple, sturdy bags for locals and visitors.
More than a century later, we’ve reimagined that design for life today, built to carry everything you need for days outdoors. (You can read the full story here)
for life outdoors
From the banks of the Thames to the beaches of Northumberland, this is a bag made to travel well. Foldaway end pockets keep bottles upright, side compartments hold plates and boards, and a roomy main section takes care of the rest.
Built the Old Way
Each Henley Bag is handmade in Britain from heavyweight canvas, with cotton rope handles, brass eyelets and solid rivets. The materials were chosen not just for strength, but for how they age, creating a bag that will improve with age and the adventures you take it on.
