OZ Collection

What is art? Does it have a purpose? It's a question that human beings have always asked themselves. We at Blom also ask ourselves this question, and although we want our accessories and garments to be useful, functional, and long-lasting, we would also like them to have a touch of art in them. That is, for them to be beautiful in themselves and for each person to be able to interpret them differently... Too ambitious? Perhaps, but at Blom, we've never liked the easy way out.

In that humble pursuit of art, while searching for fabrics and textiles in Madrid, we came across a fabric that immediately caught our attention (see photo below). A fabric whose color, texture, and the simplicity of its lines immediately transported us to another place. A primitive place, far from the city, surrounded by nature. And we immediately thought it was a perfect art form to capture in our accessories.

And that's how the 'OZ' collection was born. The letters 'OZ' are the English short for 'Aussie,' which in turn is the colloquial name for Australian . Australians themselves call themselves 'Aussies,' 'Ozzies,' or 'OZs.' A bit confusing, no? The important thing is that in the end we gave it that name because the fabric reminded us of Australian Aboriginal art. A simple, striking art that transports you to that primitive place we were talking about.

To develop our OZ collection, we chose two of our favorites—the STR and the Kingpin—and a new bag model created for the occasion.

STR Fanny Pack: This is our first fanny pack, and that's why we're especially fond of it. It's smaller than the Kingpin, but it still holds everything we need for our daily lives.

For this new collection, we've retained the polyester on the back and upper front and included the new tribal fabric on the front, achieving the perfect combination of design, durability, comfort, and quality.

The STR OZ fanny pack is handmade by us, always relying on Spanish suppliers with the intention of promoting fair trade. We highlight the STR OZ fanny pack's unparalleled design, which will make everyone want to know where you got it.

Kingpin Fanny Pack: Those of you who have been following us for a while know that the Kingpin is our flagship when it comes to fanny packs, and that is why we have decided to introduce it along with the STR fanny pack and the Calypso Bag in this new collection.

Its size is the same as the original Kingpin, enough to fit everything you need: wallet, keys, cell phone, glasses, tobacco, etc. The base fabric is still made of waterproof material and maintains the same characteristics as its predecessors.

As always, the Kingpin features a front pocket, perfect for carrying your Mini Wallet ^^. The quality of its finish, as well as its lightness, make the Kingpin OZ fanny pack a unique accessory for summer and your days of adventure or festivals.

Calypso Bag: Along with the STR and Kingpin fanny packs, the Calypso bag is the third piece in our new OZ collection. A collection inspired by the drawings of Australian Aboriginal people and destined to stand out.

We have taken advantage of a very special occasion for us, such as the launch of this personal and different OZ collection , to bring to light a new bag design that contains some features of its predecessors such as our Grand Tote and the Nalu bag.

It maintains a fairly similar shape to the Nalu bag , but in a smaller size and with the characteristic touch of the handles starting practically from the base like our Grand Tote .

For this occasion, we combined nylon and OZ fabric. The bag is entirely nylon, lined with the fabric on both sides.

It's a piece that comes very close to our creative ideals, combining durable, technical materials with artistic and personal fabrics... achieving unique finishes.

We hope this new collection will bring you a little closer to that artistic, primitive, and wild side.
