Nitty Gritty

Böle corner at the Nitty Gritty shop in Stockholm.

EST. 1899

Bōle is a true story. Founded in 1899, we are the last standing spruce bark tannery in the world. Under the same roof, we craft our unique cattle leather into bags and other leather goods. Our products are made to last and to age with style. We genuinely believe that we make the world’s best briefcases. Our beautiful rucksacks are created from organically tanned reindeer skin. Recently, we introduced the Classic collection as a tribute to traditional sadlery. As a 4th generation family business, and a purveyor to the Swedish royal court, we take the sustainable view on everything we do. Böle village is located along the Pite river just south of the Arctic circle in Sweden.
