THE STORY

Terra Nova (- noun •  / ˌterə ˈnəʊvə /)
- is latin for "A New Land"

Bombay Trooper, in collaboration with Mona B, brings you this luxurious and premium collection of our bags and backpacks are made from the canvas fabrics that once covered the tents and trucks of various military camps around the world. These canvas fabrics literally travelled the globe and were brought in with sole purpose to upcycle them into what will become your own unique personal luggage, giving them 'a new land'.

Each of the bags in our Terra Nova collection is unique and has distinct rugged marks from the times they once adorned prestigious cantonments. What you carry will be a one-of-a-kind original timeless piece of fashionable luggage that has its own story to tell.

When Christopher Columbus discovered the Americas during his adventurous explorations, they dubbed it as "A New World"; with a hope to cause a global revolution. Similarly, we aspire to travel the world with a hope to have a similar impact - but of sustainable, recycled / upcycled, eco-friendly products. This is just a small first-attempt and we invite you to come be a part of the change.
