Backpacks Totes Small Bags
handcrafted in britain – guaranteed for a wildish life
Wildish (previously BearMade) exists to challenge what it means to be a sustainable business.
Our bags are made in the UK using GOTS-certified organic weatherproof dry-waxed cotton canvas, and we only make 25 bags a week. That’s our capacity. We have no intention of exponential growth. We just want to make great bags, for awesome people, and have fun doing it.
Since we opened our bag & coffee shop in the Yorkshire dales in 2022 we've slowly started adding a few more things to our Wildish® range.
You won't find hundreds of different products here. Just a few things we use everyday.

a small team doing big things
Making anything leaves a footprint. To make something in the most responsible way possible, we think it needs to be made to last, be crafted locally in small batches and be recyclable.
Let customers speak for us
from 418 reviewsThe looks, the feel, the quality of materials and craftsmanship - all about this bag is absolutely stellar. Got it as a replacement for my old rucksack that had started falling apart and I'm bloody loving it, especially the sound that the buckle makes when you click it in (very satisfying). Couldn't recommend this bag more!
Excellent. Just excellent
I love the colour - it's a richer burnt orange than my computer screen led me to believe. I bought it as an easier way of carrying a small amount of things whilst walking the dog. I wanted something a bit smaller and smarter than the usual rucksack so I could use it around town too. I've found it carries more than I thought so I also use it for my weekly ballet class. It fits my water bottle, purse, phone, hair brush, ballet shoes, T-shirt and leggings. Love the fact it's as locally made as possible. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend.
I needed a man bag but couldn’t find anything until I saw this, and it’s perfect! Just the right size for all that junk I used to carry in my pockets. It’s sturdy, well made, and looks good. Love it! Would be nice to have a second inside pocket perhaps (phone and wallet?) and perhaps a clip for keys? — but anyway, I really recommend this bag.
After searching for some time, it was a relief to find this ethical company and the perfect bag. Am really enjoying using it.
Exactly as advertised and really enjoying using it. Love the look and feel.
Just took it on a two week holiday and it was great. The whole thing feels sturdy and premium. It was comfortable to wear. The strap in the front pocket allowed me to easily carry it in my hand when in more confined spaces. Couldn't ask for a better bag tbh
Lovely bag which is the perfect size and beautifully made. And the service (thanks Nell) is second to none. Long may you succeed!
Fitted the now many years old bag! Makes a big difference when filling the bag with heavy stuff and full, shoulders feeling the difference 😁
I just bought a Black Jorvik.It won't be used seriously for a week so just been over everything with a very critical eye.The materials and construction are top quality, no loose threads etc. It is very well designed with just the right amount of pockets ( maybe one internal one could have a zip ? ). My uses are airport hand luggage, carrying swim/snorkel gear with maybe the odd shop and beer run. Excellent service and ethics. A little pricey but if it lasts then not so much

This is a really nicely made, nicely sized carrying pouch for when you have slightly too much stuff to fit in pockets, but not enough to need a proper bag. The strap is adjustable to a good variety of lengths, including longer than in the photos. I fit my wallet, keys, a few pens, a notebook, phone, paperback, and hand gel pretty easily, and could probably squeeze in a small water bottle too.
Really excellent quality little bag bought as a gift for my partner, he loves it!
who cares wins
Whilst we love making great things, we think there is a lot more we can do with our platform and profits. So we started the Wildish Club. A movement that brings awesome people together to do interesting stuff outdoors.
