Our Story

Machine Washable

We're on a mission to make the most low-maintenance handbags ever. So we ditched the high-maintenance care instructions for a simple promise: just toss it in the wash. Every bag we make is built to handle the spin cycle, giving you high-end style with zero fuss.

Sustainability

3,500,000 Plastic Bottles

By transforming recycled plastic bottles into high-performance fibers, we keep plastic out of landfills and give it a second life as your favorite bag. It’s a beautiful way to lighten our footprint without sacrificing the performance you need.

Performance Fabrics

We believe smart fabrics make for the perfect everyday bags. That’s why ours are washable, lightweight, and designed to handle your real life.

Meet Rachel, Designer + Founder

In 2013 when Rachel Kistner founded Canvelle she didn't want a new bag, she wanted a new kind of bag: one that could keep up with real life. Since then Canvelle has evolved into an entirely new category of performance handbags. Now operating out of Canvelle's Denver-based facility, Rachel designs with a simple philosophy: handbags should make everyday life easier. That means bags that are comfortable, simple to care for, and always machine washable.
