( The MAZ story )

Made for all the ways you move.

MAZ started with one idea: the bag you carry every day should make you feel put together, and like yourself.

The idea

Confidence doesn't have to be loud. Sometimes it's just knowing you packed what you need, and liking the bag you packed it in.

We design for long days: the commute, the meeting that runs over, the flight, the school run, plus whatever gets added on the way home. A MAZ bag has to handle all of that and still look good at the end of it.

What she carries

The woman we design for carries a lot. Her laptop, her baby's things, a passport on the busier weeks, and a gym kit she swears she'll use today. Some days she's mostly a mum, some days she's mostly at work, and plenty of days she's both before lunch, then squeezes in a 6pm class anyway.

( What's in one tote on a Tuesday )
  1. 01Headphones for the commute, then the treadmill
  2. 02A water bottle refilled twice, once after Pilates
  3. 03Gym clothes, rolled tight leggings, socks, a spare hair tie
  4. 04Perfume for after the gym
  5. 05Keys, on a MAZ keychain easy to find, for once
  6. 06Whatever got added somewhere between home and the door
  7. 07A MAZ mini yes, a bag inside the bag

So the useful parts come first: roomy shapes, pockets where you'd expect them, more than one way to carry it. The bold fabric and colour come after, and they're the reason it looks like a MAZ bag.

Colour

MAZ doesn't belong to one colour. Bags change with the seasons and with your mood, and we'd rather go along with that than fight it, so each collection gets its own colourways.

The name

Our name is set in a bold, rounded typeface. We wanted it to feel warm and a little friendly, like something you'd grab on the way out without thinking twice.

It also had to hold its own next to the biggest bag brands in the world. That was the plan from day one, and it still is.
