Behind the Bags

Nusa is the Indonesian word for Island. NUSA BAG was born from our deep connection to the place where we feel completely free. As twins, Bali is our favorite destination and truly feels like our second home. We are endlessly inspired by the island's breathtaking nature, but what makes it so special are the local people. They radiate such positive energy and are simply the friendliest people we have ever met. Their genuine warmth and constant laughter make us feel so comfortable and happy. With our bags, we want to capture that exact island joy and share it with you.

Made by Local Hands

We believe that the energy put into making a bag is just as important as the materials used. That’s why at NUSA BAG, there are no anonymous factories—only a beautiful community of creators. All our bags are handcrafted in Canggu, Bali, by local artisans who have become true friends to us. Keeping our circle small and our relationships strong is deeply important to us. Though we can't be on the island every day, we stay in close touch with these incredibly talented people, sharing updates, laughter, and a deep appreciation for their art across the miles.

We consciously step away from mass production because we truly believe in slow fashion and quality that endures. By carefully sourcing our premium, genuine leather from the neighboring island of Lombok, we ensure both durability and that signature soft, boho-chic feel. From the statement studs to the handcrafted fringes, every detail is applied with precision and love. A NUSA bag is designed to age beautifully and become your trusted companion for everyday adventures, carrying a piece of this remarkable craftsmanship and our Bali friendship wherever you go.

Every Bag Donates 5 CHF to Bali's Children

The true soul of Bali lies in its incredibly warm and positive people. Because this island has given us so many beautiful memories and a true sense of freedom, giving back is deeply important to us. We want to help the children of Bali build a bright and independent future with the tools they need. That is why, with every NUSA bag you purchase, we donate 5 CHF to the Bali Children Foundation to provide vital access to education. Together, we can return the smiles Bali has given us and make a real difference for the next generation.
