Db (29 articles)

Db, originally founded as Douchebags, was created in 2012 by Norwegian professional skier Jon Olsson and Swedish entrepreneur Truls Brataas. The idea was made from the need to develop functional and stylish luggage, especially for adventurers and athletes. The founders combined their expertise in design and practice to create products that can withstand the rigors of traveling and look great at the same time.

Patented technology and stylish products

Db offers a wide range of luggage and backpacks that are cleverly designed and innovative. Among the best-known products are ‘The Ramverk,’ a robust and stylish wheeled suitcase that makes all journeys comfortable. Its design offers maximum protection with minimum weight. The multisport backpack ‘The Hugger’ is suitable for everyday use and traveling and is made from a durable and cleverly designed material that allows easy access to all compartments. The patented rib cage construction protects the contents and makes the backpack shape-retaining. Another highlight is the surf, snowboard, and ski bags, where you can stow your sports equipment safely and stylishly. They combine robustness with easy handling and offer ample space for equipment and clothing. For your everyday urban life, Db offers the compact and stylish backpack ‘The Essential’, featuring special compartments for laptops and other important items.
