Where does the name Isolde come from?
Sissi's mom Isolde designed the bag with the Hermès Kelly bag as inspiration.

How big is the Isolde really?
The Isolde measures approx. 33 × 23 × 13 cm.

Is the Isolde waterproof?
Water-resistant, yes — inside and out, it holds tight in light rain or splashes. It is not designed for prolonged rain or submersion.

Is the Isolde really handmade?
Yes, it is handmade and personally signed by our seamstresses, such as Mom Sreyneth, in our social workshop in Phnom Penh. Standard sewing machines are used.

Is every Isolde really unique?
Yes. Every fish feed bag had an individual life before. The print, wear, and cut differ slightly from piece to piece, so your bag may differ slightly from the example photo.

What does my purchase have to do with the Mango Tree School?
At least 5% of our annual profit goes to our passion project, the "Mango Tree School" in Cambodia — this allows us to fund teacher Rithy's salary and the learning materials for over 90 students. A small way to give something back to the country where the majority of our products are made.
