Our Thandana Story

Since establishing in 2010, Thandana has become a well known luggage brand with a focus on immaculate workmanship and quality and we’re proud to stock stores across South Africa and abroad.

Our human existence is measured by how we live and love - how we carry the load we are given and the love we hold along the journey.

This is the DNA of Thandana - LOVE. Love is made visible in the way we design, the way we treat our people, our communities, and the way we care for the environment.

Ultimately, we have an undying love for South Africa - our spirit, our style, our stories.

Thandana is crafted with this in mind.Our bags are handled with love and designed to last.

Whatever you carry inside a Thandana bag is for you, but the outside is made to be adored by everyone else too. We are proud of the work and dedication of our fine artisans, and we believe ours is a story of luggage worth transporting beyond our shores.

Red heart-shaped leather pouch

Our mission is to make sure that whenever anyone in the world has something to carry, they carry it in a Thandana bag, and with it, a piece of South Africa.

Our waterproof technology ensures that the lifetime of your Thandana piece is extended and by combining the fabric with genuine Bovine South African leather, means its durability will make your piece last for years.

Black and white striped beach towel with a fringed edge and a yellow label that reads ’carry your life with love.’

If there is one thing we would stitch into the inside label of all our bags, it would be this...

Carry your life with love.
