Kanoa Black

Kanoa Bag is more than a handbag - it’s a cultural journey between the ancestral and the contemporary, designed to accompany the moments that matter. Inspired by the canoes that once navigated the ancient trade routes of the Caribbean, Kanoa is a vessel of memory, movement, and identity. Handcrafted by three artisans from different regions of the Dominican Republic, Kánoa embodies a dialogue between tradition and innovation. Its body is woven from waxed paper cellulose fleje — a flexible, resistant material historically used in the transport of goods and crafts. The wax finish adds durability while preserving a tactile, organic feel. The straps and lining are made from cactus-based vegan leather, a sustainable alternative that honors both the land and contemporary values. Dimensions: 15" W x 7" H x 3" D
