Pakuma hit the market in 2005 and we have been with them to bring a completely new product to market. We have since set up distribution, etail and also major retail. This has meant now Pakuma can be seen across many places in the UK. Gone are the days where people carry boring black laptop bags to work and we feel it our mission to bring some colour into the lives of many. (Click to visit: www.pakuma.com)
For both the AKARA and
CHOROKA ranges you will find a sense of unique style combined with a common
sense approach to durability.
We know that however cool a bag may look, it will soon lose its appeal if it’s a
pain to use. So getting the design right is really important. For example, we’ve
made sure that our bags are comfortable to carry – the straps are in the right
place and fully adjustable. In our CHOROKA range, we’ve even included an extra
strap that stops the bag from slipping around to the front. Really handy if
you’re on a bike!

All of our bags are capacious, but neat, with a separate compartment for stuff
other than your notebook. Like your music player be it an MP3 or and iPod. And
the insides are lined with light grey fabric, so you can see what you’re looking
for, rather than delving into an abyss! You’ll find lots more thoughtful
features on each bag.We want you to own a PAKUMA ™ bag for a long time, so to
make sure that it keeps on working and looking good, we select and use the best
materials we can find.
We choose high-performance industry leading fabrics. Our tough woven webbing
straps are designed to withstand serious stress. We only use YKK™ zips, the best
in the world. They work smoothly every time. And patented DURAFLEX™ buckles that
won’t break or stick. Not all bag makers are so particular so check carefully
when choosing a bag. Then to top things off, we assemble our bags to the highest
possible manufacturing standards and rigorous stitch-by-stitch quality control.

Unique COCOON™ SYSTEM protects notebooks better.
We believe that a computer bag should first and foremost do the job you’ve
bought it for, protect your notebook. So we took a look at all the bags out
there and wondered how we could offer better protection than the rest. We came
up with our unique notebook COCOON™.

A specially designed fixed pocket that holds your computer firmly in place and
cushions it with panels of high density memory foam (researched and invented by
NASA). With your notebook safely in the COCOON™, there’s still plenty of room
for magazines, papers, music player’s and all your other bits and pieces.
Our manufacturing policy
We specify all of the materials and construction details to ensure that they
meet the high standards we set out to achieve. Our designing and marketing takes
place within the shores of Great Britain while our manufacturing takes place in
the Far-East in a factory that employs a hardworking team of craftspeople who
earn good wages and an honest living, just like us here. We visit our factory on
a regular basis to ensure the highest possible manufacturing standards and
working conditions alike. This is very important to us. We are hard working bag
fanatics, both designing and making them. But at the same time we want to
support our respective local communities especially in this increasingly
competitive global market.
