ROV was born out of my love for thoughtful carry. 

I’ve spent years searching out the perfect bag; going back to my years in college running to class or traveling between school and home on the weekends. I was always looking for ways to elevate and express myself through the bags I was using. Whether it was a backpack, a duffle, a tote or even a small accessory, there were always these fun ways to do that. 

ROV grew from that love. I've always demanded the best and I will accept nothing less for customers. In creating ROV I’ve worked with some amazing partners. From a leather worker I met in Montana that has taught me more than I knew existed about leather products, or one of the premier heritage bag makers in the US.

ROV is based here in Minneapolis, and aside from the help I get with manufacturing I handle most everything else from customer service, fulfillment, and overall management. I am the definition of a small operation. But I could never do it truly alone. To all those that have helped me along the way; whether customer, friend, or both; ROV would not exist without that and I will be ever grateful for all your contributions.
