The straps of our Wayuu Bag are meticulously woven and measure between 32 and 40 inches in length. This adjustable feature ensures a comfortable fit for everyone, allowing you to wear it as a shoulder bag or crossbody style. The straps showcase the artisans' expert craftsmanship and attention to detail, enhancing the bag's overall aesthetic.

Made from high-quality acrylic threads, the bag's weaving pattern reflects the rich cultural heritage of the Wayuu community. The vibrant colors and geometric motifs are inspired by the natural surroundings of the Guajira Peninsula, creating a visually captivating accessory that celebrates traditional artistry.

Whether you're heading to the beach, going shopping, or attending a social gathering, this versatile bag ensures you can carry your belongings securely while making a fashion statement.

 The selling of handcrafts is fundamental to the survival of the Wayuu people. By buying their bags you're helping their economic development and the passing on of their culture. Also, part of the profits will be donated to susceptible communities. Each $50 will help feed 5 Wayuu children through The Wayuu Taya Foundation.
