About Us

EAST 47 – East born. Globally worn.

We’re EAST 47 — a brand founded in the East of the UK by two mates who grew up with grit, hustle, and a deep dislike for overpriced luggage. We were tired of checked-bag fees, wasted space, and backpacks that couldn’t handle real life. So we did something about it.

We didn’t invent compression travel, we just made it smarter, sharper, and way more useful. The vacuum-compression backpack is built for people who pack hard, move fast, and travel light, skipping cities, escaping the 9–5, or just dodging the budget airline baggage trap.

What We’re About

We believe travel should feel free, not expensive. That’s why everything we do is focused on space-saving, fee-avoiding, stress-reducing design. No gimmicks. No fluff. Just bags that do their job, so you can focus on living yours.

Who We’re For

We built this for the urban explorers, remote workers, digital nomads, weekend warriors, and everyone who’s ever thought, “I can make this fit.”
If you know the game of squeezing your life into a carry-on, you’re our kind of person.

Our Promise

No jargon.

No upsells.

No compromises.

Just functional, durable, travel-smart gear that helps you pack more, pay less, and look clean doing it.

From the East. Built for anywhere.
Thanks for being part of the journey — now let’s get moving.
