Brown, gray women’s corduroy backpack
A brown corduroy backpack with a gray accent, a tone that looks best in autumn. The brown is muted, closer to a coffee with milk than a chocolate, and the gray balances it out so the whole thing doesn’t feel heavy.
The corduroy comes from upholstery scraps, we made one backpack from it in our workshop in Ciechanów.
Dimensions: 34 x 27 cm without bottle pocket. Inside there is a waterproof lining, five pockets, two drink holders and stroller hooks.

A brown corduroy backpack for everyday use, not just for special occasions
Brown and gray are a forgiving combination. It doesn’t show any dust from the tram or marks from being left on a park bench, and yet it’s not just another black bag in the crowd.
What is it made of?
The outer material is a brown-gray corduroy upholstery, a scrap from a furniture factory. New, unused, discarded only because it was too small for another piece of furniture.
The lining is new and waterproof, as are the zippers and hardware. Only the outer fabric is recycled.
What’s in it?
Dimensions are 34 x 27 cm without bottle pocket.
The main compartment has three pockets, one zippered and two slip-in pockets. It’s the difference between a backpack where everything is at the bottom and one where your phone is right there.
Two zippered pockets on the outside: the front one for a ticket, tissues and keys, and the back one, at the back, for anything you want to keep out of sight.
The bottle fits into one of the two side holders. It also has a handle and adjustable straps.
For whom?
For someone who carries a backpack from morning to night and wants it to match both their sweater and coat, brown and gray are wardrobe staples.
Stroller attachments make a difference when walking, as you can attach your backpack instead of carrying it.
How to care
Dust with a soft brush, always along the stripe. Spot-treat stains with a damp cloth and a mild detergent. Hand wash in lukewarm water, dry flat. Do not tumble dry or iron.
Frequently asked questions
Is the backpack waterproof?
The interior lining is waterproof. The corduroy upholstery can withstand moisture and drizzle, but it’s not designed for prolonged periods of walking in heavy rain.
Will there be a second play?
It won’t. Each piece has a different shade and stripe pattern, so the next backpack will always come out slightly different. For something from a similar palette, contact scoiattolo.biuro@gmail.com
Does the backpack stand on its own when empty?
Upholstery fabrics are heavyweight and hold their shape better than clothing materials, so the backpack doesn’t roll up into a sheet when you empty it.
