the brand story:

Terra Thread was created with people and the planet at its core, specializing in a line of premium bags made using family grown Organic Cotton and fair labour practices.

Terra Thread's parent company, Gallant, was founded in sunny Southern California. Founder Vik was born and raised in Nepal and spent time in India as his brothers and father worked there. In 2009 he started Gallant with the intention to help small scale artisans as well as to establish a business for himself in the US. After learning about the importance of Fair Trade and organic products at trade shows, Gallant joined organizations like Fair Trade USA, Fairtrade International, Fairtrade Federation, Organic Trade Association and the Global Organic Textile Standard.

The company has since partnered with a factory in India to make private label bags, cosmetic pouches, muslin bags, and accessories. All of the Gallant's products are GOTS certified and Fair Trade. Having made bags for collections/brands and companies around the world, Vik realized that there were not many options for affordable and sustainable backpacks that consumers could choose from. In 2017, he expanded his company and started his retail brand, Terra Thread Collection.

    Beautiful Backpack!

    This backpack is so spacious, and easily fits everything I need to take to work. The cotton canvas and zip seem very durable, and I absolutely love the colour!

    3rd purchase of this bag

    My two eldest sons have this bag in Deep Sea Teal (1 year) and Tidal Blue (probably going on 2 or 3 years) and I have just purchased this one in Lavender for my daughter. Beautiful thick cotton canvas feels sturdy. I tend to wash the bags at the end of the year or term and they have held up fine to that. I love that there are zero plastic parts compared to most bags made from 100% synthetic material. I am hoping these bags can see them from primary school all the way through to the end high school. They seem to have a cool enough vibe and will age well I think.

    Great bag - a very happy purchase

    I have been slowly replacing my non-sustainable belongings over the past few years when they wear out. My last handbag died a while ago and was being held together by tying the broken strap onto the body of the bag for the better part of a year. I put considerable thought into this purchase. I had decided I would replace my handbag with a backpack - a thought made easier by being a parent to a young child and requiring both a large amount of daily storage and the use of both of my hands at all times.

    I chose terra thread due to its ethical rating and comparatively reasonable price. Yes this is a financial investment but I needed a bag and decided I would rather spend $110 and be done for life than $20 here, $15 there every few months. If you can find it on special, even better!

    The colour is gorgeous. It’s is a beautiful shade of yellow. I do find though if I wear anything yellow, I do tend to look rather… yellow 😄 so if I was buying one again I’d go a more neutral colour but I really don’t mind. Just an unimportant observation.

    The quality is impeccable. This will absolutely last a lifetime. I’m not particularly hard on things though so if you are, you might wear it out though I don’t see how. The zips are incredibly sturdy- nothing like you find in departments stores. This bag will go the distance. I’ve had this around 4-5 months now and it still looks new. If it stained, I’d wash it. It’s cotton so should wash well.

    Overall, I’m very happy with my purchase. Highly…
