For us and for our Mato's Community BACKPACK means BOTTIGLITO.
But let's go step by step: what is Bottiglito? It born in 2013, when Tommaso and I were still working in our garage and in that place our ideas came to life. In a hot summer day we thought we needed a backpack that could be more than a normal backpack, we were searching a symbol, something that represented us.
In that period we wanted to stand out from the crowd, we had just started and we were rebellious souls and pure electric discharges.
Well, in June 2013 the first example of the Bottiglito Backpack was born with this strange name that doesn't exist because.. we invented it! We thought we had made a bottle and this funny thought inspired us.
Initially it was not very convincing, our parents and relatives told us their hesitant opinions ... it seems strange, but is it comfortable? I don't know if you'll sell it .. things like that.
We must admit that at the beginning, all the people kept buying the classic model that we made.. a nice backpack .. but not like Bottiglito.
Tommaso and I are very stubborn. When something convinces us, we can't forget it and we insisted a lot, we showed it to everyone, we explained it. We showed it like talking about a person. How can you blame us? it was a creature born by us and give it little importance for us was impossible.
Initially some original people took it and pampered it, carried it around everywhere.. then others more shy started to come forward and try it, then they fell in love. After all, Bottiglito has an important personality, certainly not for everyone. Maybe you love him or hate him ... just like us ...
For everyone we always say: Every people has his Bottiglito beacause the backpack is completely CUSTOMIZABLE!
From this moment, we worked on various models of our BAGS, we have made CUSTOMIZED WORKS and that inspired us becoming more and more practical in our work. We improved over the years the quality of Bottiglito and we studied for it the best materials, which could represent our philosophy and trying to understand the major effort points.
Now Bottiglito has his definitive form and materials: a VEGETABLE TANNED TUSCAN LEATHER and a very resistant and natural ITALIAN COTTON.
For us this backpack is the symbol of dream and reality at the same time beacause it is our BEST SELLER from years and it has accompanied us in our life choices, in the improvement of work and in our trips and adventures (which you can follow in our Instagram stories @ el.mato.official) always ready and never tired of bringing our things.
We recommend the Bottiglito to free spirits and people who still dream and love.
It isn't for everyone, it's for people who live, who try and throw themselves. People who know that we have only one life and that doesn't waste time because there is always a backpack waiting for the adventure .. just fill it and go!
