A line of stylish minimalist backpacks is the result of a collaboration between Barcelona-based brand Ölend and quality stationary supply company Octaevo. The collaboration between the labels was termed "mandatory" as the two uphold similar values and love for the sea. While the former label is dedicated to elevating the experience of "city adventurers," the latter pays tribute to "explorers, collectors and dreamers."
Ölend and Octaevo's collaboration is a line of minimalist backpacks that communicate the colors that are characteristic of natural and sea landscapes. The products are luxuriously handcrafted in an atelier in Poblenou under wholesome production values that do not compromise patience, dedication and quality.
The minimalist backpacks can translate themselves into the everyday outfit of the urban explorer, as well as satisfy the needs of the occasional hiker.

What Makes This Trend Stand Out
- Minimalist Backpacks
- Companies can explore the possibility of partnering with other brands in different industries, bringing in new unique perspectives and insights into their products as well as expand their customer base.
- Stylish and Sustainable Products
- As consumers become increasingly ecologically conscious, companies can explore the potential for the creation of sustainable products using quality resources and ethical labor practices that meet high environmental and social standards.
- Product Personalization
- By allowing customers some extent of personalization, such as incorporating chosen colors or materials, businesses can deepen their relationship with clients and cater better to their tastes and choices.
Sectors Adopting This
- Fashion and Accessories
- The collaborations between Octaevo and Ölend highlight opportunities for the fashion and accessories industry to focus on minimalistic and sustainable offerings, which help reduce the environmental impact of the industry.
- Product Design and Manufacturing
- Designers and manufacturers can adopt practices that focus on using sustainable materials and providing ethical labor practices to reduce their environmental impact while delivering quality products.
- Retail and Consumer Goods
- Retailers can offer product customization to appeal to a broader range of consumers, enhancing their customer experience and providing increased opportunities for customer engagement.
