THE VERDI MOCHILA

The VERDI Mochila

VERDI’s fashion take on artisanal techniques is a modern yet cultural expression that celebrates the essence of Colombia, serving as a testament to the country‘s natural beauty and cultural diversity. The first VERDI mochila was born in 2015 when Tomás Vera, founder of VERDI, aimed to showcase the intriguing and inspiring craft from its emblematic interior design pieces through a creative gesture. This mochila has since become the beating heart that fuels the brand’s fashion pillar.

LA MOCHILA

moh-chee-lah

The Colombian mochila is a traditional handwoven bag with deep cultural roots, crafted by indigenous communities such as the Wayúu, Arhuaco, Kankuamo, and Kogui. Each mochila carries symbolic patterns reflecting ancestral stories, nature, and spirituality. At VERDI, we honor this legacy by blending traditional weaving techniques with contemporary design, intertwining natural fibers with fine metal threads like copper, silver, and gold. Handwoven in our Bogotá atelier, the VERDI mochila reinterprets this iconic craft, elevating it into a modern expression of luxury and artistry.

This Copper Pineapple Mochila is the first ever fashion piece created at VERDI — a piece that marked the beginning of our journey in fashion.
