Stylish and functional bags by Knomo are everyday all-rounders

With their confident, modern design, Knomo bags have become a popular everyday accessory. Especially for working women, Knomo offers an extremely stylish alternative to bulky briefcases. The sporty yet elegant Knomo briefcases and laptop bags meet all the demands of business life: with premium craftsmanship, reliable quality and a smart, practical interior, these bags appeal even to the most discerning customers. Knomo is one of the few brands offering business bags for women that combine high functionality with a distinctly feminine style – without compromising professionalism. Behind elegant saffiano textures, precise stitching or quilted finishes, you'll find ample compartments for folders, laptops and more. But the brand isn’t just for women. Knomo also offers masculine and unisex briefcases and laptop backpacks, providing plenty of storage for the office day. In the travel segment, Knomo presents a choice between stylish weekenders and practical mobile offices – all designed for maximum comfort during business trips. A team of international designers at the London-based brand ensures that technical expertise is effortlessly combined with the trends of the dynamic metropolis. Just like their owners, Knomo messenger bags and briefcases radiate personality, mobility and total independence.

London is calling: Knomo bags for business, everyday and special moments capture the spirit of the times

Howard Harrison, one of Knomo’s founders, originally worked for a company that produced toilet paper. While undeniably important, Harrison felt drawn to the creative world and founded the Knomo label in London in 2004, together with a friend. Their goal: to design bags that would help free their users from the confines of the office. Knomo laptop bags and messenger bags are stylish solutions for mobile communication, designed to meet all the demands of modern working life. Thanks to carefully selected materials and high-end components, Knomo bags are built to handle even heavy loads and adapt to the pressures of a fast-paced workday. Especially elegant are the Knomo leather bags, available in either smooth, glossy finishes or with a striking saffiano texture. An interesting alternative can be found in their briefcases and laptop backpacks made from tear-resistant, lightweight nylon, or their cotton briefcases with sturdy leather handles.

Knomo – from community favourite to luxury brand

The brand name Knomo combines kno from knowledge and mo from mobility. The brand’s mission is to create stylish and functional companions for professionals on the move – and it has done so with great success. With its Kickstarter project #LiveFree Backpack, the trendsetting brand won over a passionate fan base and launched a revolutionary 24/7 backpack packed with smart features. But Knomo’s appeal extends well beyond its loyal community. In 2018, the label with the silent ‘k’ was officially named one of Britain’s most exclusive brands. Great British Brands – the bible of the British luxury industry – is a curated selection of the top 150 luxury brands across beauty, fashion, accessories, watches and jewellery, design, technology, art and culture.
