For both the AKARA and CHOROKA ranges you will find a sense of unique style combined with a common sense approach to durability.

We know that however cool a bag may look, it will soon lose its appeal if it’s a pain to use. So getting the design right is really important. For example, we’ve made sure that our bags are comfortable to carry – the straps are in the right place and fully adjustable. In our CHOROKA range, we’ve even included an extra strap that stops the bag from slipping around to the front. Really handy if you’re on a bike!

All of our bags are capacious, but neat, with a separate compartment for stuff other than your notebook. Like your music player be it an MP3 or and iPod. And the insides are lined with light grey fabric, so you can see what you’re looking for, rather than delving into an abyss! You’ll find lots more thoughtful features on each bag.We want you to own a PAKUMA ™ bag for a long time, so to make sure that it keeps on working and looking good, we select and use the best materials we can find.

We choose high-performance industry leading fabrics. Our tough woven webbing straps are designed to withstand serious stress. We only use YKK™ zips, the best in the world. They work smoothly every time. And patented DURAFLEX™ buckles that won’t break or stick. Not all bag makers are so particular so check carefully when choosing a bag. Then to top things off, we assemble our bags to the highest possible manufacturing standards and rigorous stitch-by-stitch quality control.

Unique COCOON™ SYSTEM protects notebooks better.

We believe that a computer bag should first and foremost do the job you’ve bought it for, protect your notebook. So we took a look at all the bags out there and wondered how we could offer better protection than the rest. We came up with our unique notebook COCOON™.

A specially designed fixed pocket that holds your computer firmly in place and cushions it with panels of high density memory foam (researched and invented by NASA). With your notebook safely in the COCOON™, there’s still plenty of room for magazines, papers, music player’s and all your other bits and pieces.

Our manufacturing policy

We specify all of the materials and construction details to ensure that they meet the high standards we set out to achieve. Our designing and marketing takes place within the shores of Great Britain while our manufacturing takes place in the Far-East in a factory that employs a hardworking team of craftspeople who earn good wages and an honest living, just like us here. We visit our factory on a regular basis to ensure the highest possible manufacturing standards and working conditions alike. This is very important to us. We are hard working bag fanatics, both designing and making them. But at the same time we want to support our respective local communities especially in this increasingly competitive global market.
