Description
We are in love with this new journey mochila bag. Created by artisans from indigenous communities in Colombia while portraying powerful thoughts onto their material creations. This handwoven bag is beautiful, unique, and full of meaning.
“Uigsa Suyu Uañuj” (Who Dies in the Womb) – The disintegration of the rhombus symbol depicts the arrival of the dead. However, whoever dies in the womb, returns to him/herself to start a new path, based on the time and space of the infinite cycle of procreation.
Handmade with love,

WASHING CARE
Hand wash is the best option to wash your mochila. For stains, you do not need to wash the whole bag, just wash the dirty area with a soft bristle brush and rub it with detergent. Let the bag dry in a shade (no direct sunlight). Avoid washing machines.
STYLE IT WITH…
Style the new journey mochila bag with the Viko Dress, Kanu Kaftan, or the Dune off-white top. They look fabulous with the bikinis too. Check the Kyanne Eco Bikini Set and the Daisy Eco Bikini Set and become the queen of the beach club – with your own Cotton Sun Turban as a crown.

ABOUT LATIDO
At Latido (‘heartbeat’ in Spanish) you will find unique handmade pieces that hold a deep intention and carry the ancestral wisdom of the indigenous communities in Colombia, South America. They want to connect you directly with the artists and bring to you a piece of art that will resonate with your soul.
It is all about the connection and same as we believe in the power of praying, we believe in the power of creative intention. The artisans when they’re creating these unique pieces are thinking about a particular issue, a particular thought… it might be fertility- something that worries us so much too, it might be Nature, it might be happiness or family relationships. Through their hands and their ancestral wisdom, those pieces are energetically supercharged, and now all that is yours. There is a deeper meaning to life and what surrounds us.
