This custom made fabric backpack with an extra compartment has been realized by myself, Isabell Wambui Mathenge, in Kenya for Michael from Frankfurt (Germany). It started with the idea from Michael. This page shows our journey from the idea to the final custom made item and the price of the item.
Hello, my niece would like to have a fabric backpack with an extra compartment like the one in the picture, but without the handles on top and in colorful. Dimensions approx. 40*30*15cm. Best wishes from Frankfurt, Micha

Hello, Isabel,
unfortunately I don't like the fabrics that much. I would like the fabric to have more different colours and the pattern to be smaller. It would be great if you could find something like that!
Best regards
Laura (niece of Michael)
