Bog is Back.

Bog is our name for this rich, dark brown—borrowed from the peat bogs of County Wicklow, Ireland. The deep colour comes from moss and heather decomposing in water trapped on rocky ground.

Peat bogs may cover just 3% of Earth’s surface, but they lock away 42% of all soil carbon. They even preserved Denmark’s 2,500-year-old Tollund Man, thanks to their acidic, oxygen-poor embrace.

Fin Waxed Cotton Backpack

Fin is for anyone on the move—travellers, gym-goers, or parents with little ones. It’s just the right size for an overnight stay too. Wear it as a backpack or carry it as a tote.

Lift the front flap to find pockets for everything: laptop, chargers, phone, water bottle, sandwich—and a handy key trigger so you’re never rummaging.

A leather base adds strength and protection, while lightweight mesh pockets and a nylon lining make spills easy to clean. The inner laptop sleeve fits tech up to 16" and can even double as a baby-changing mat.

The outer is crafted from water-resistant British waxed cotton with Italian bridle leather trims.

Care

Without the conditions of a Danish bog, these bags won’t last 2,500 years—but with care, they’ll stay by your side.

Our Bog-coloured waxed cotton has a slightly heavier wax finish, giving it a warm sheen, deeper colour, and smoother touch. Originally developed for mariners in the 15th century, this traditional British water-resistant fabric can’t be washed or dry-cleaned—just sponge gently with a damp, soap-free cloth, dry fully in a cool airy place, and never store damp. Reproof with wax dressing to keep it waterproof.

With time, the wax will soften and the colour will lighten, especially in sun-exposed areas. Likewise, patina and fading can occur on the Italian veg-tanned leather fittings, developed from the sun and natural oils of our fingers. This is a feature that the Ally Capellino community love, they see the journey as a joint affair. Ageing together.
