Välnorth Gear
Material
Surplus PVC
Handcrafted
Our products are made from durable 1000D Cordura® and surplus PVC, ensuring long-lasting use and excellent weather resistance. The straps and webbing are made from high-strength polyester for added reliability and comfort in daily use.
Our goal is to design gear that’s simple, functional, and includes only the essential features. Each item is carefully developed to meet your needs—whatever the purpose. We constantly strive to improve our designs to enhance your user experience.
We use surplus PVC—offcuts from larger fabric rolls—that would otherwise go to waste. This material not only gives our products a modern, weatherproof finish but also significantly reduces environmental impact.
Using surplus PVC allows us to eliminate up to 80% of potential PVC waste and lower both our carbon footprint and production costs, without compromising on performance or aesthetics.
All Välnorth Gear backpacks are handmade in Finland, mostly in our own workshop in Rauma. This ensures high quality at every step.
We blend traditional craftsmanship with modern materials to create durable, functional gear with a clean Nordic look.
"We aim to create high-quality, practical products tailored to real user needs. We openly welcome feedback and ideas from our customers."
— Lauri, founder of Välnorth Gear
