The Archive Drop · Coming Soon
~100 backpacks.
Each one one‑of‑a‑kind.
Each one numbered.
We're releasing the last of our archive — vintage, hand-woven textiles, upcycled into our signature backpacks. No two are alike. Once they're claimed, they're gone for good.

What makes each piece special
Not a re-run. A last-of-its-kind.
These aren't reprints or a new production line — they're the final, singular pieces from our archive collections, built with the same materials our community loves.
Vintage & hand-woven
Each bag features a one-of-a-kind panel of vintage, hand-loomed textile curated from artisan communities across Northern Vietnam and Laos. Because the fabric is genuinely vintage, no two are ever the same.
Vegan leather + recycled lining
Crafted with durable vegan leather and lined with 100% recycled polyester (TOPGREEN®, spun from recycled PET bottles and certified to the Global Recycled Standard). Made to travel the world with you.
A does-it-all backpack
Padded laptop sleeve, smart organization, and comfortable straps — our signature SuperNova & Voyager silhouettes are built for school runs, work, and everyday adventures alike.
Individually numbered
Every piece in the drop carries its own number. When you claim yours, you're claiming a specific, singular bag — not one of many.

Our story
Elevate the everyday by saying yes.
Rafi Nova began with a family, a love of travel, and a belief that the things we carry every day should be beautiful — and should do good in the world. We're a socially conscious lifestyle brand on a mission to outfit families for everyday adventures, so they can connect, have fun, and do more good.
We work hand-in-hand with artisan communities across Northern Vietnam and Laos, giving vintage, hand-woven textiles a second life as backpacks built to last. This archive is the last of those singular pieces — and when it sells through, these exact bags won't be made again.
Create community. Act locally, support globally.
