Hopper Crossbody Bag | Limited Edition WWII U.S. Wool Blanket
History, reimagined for your everyday carry.
This Limited Edition Hopper is handcrafted from authentic WWII-era U.S. military wool blankets—each one a relic of resilience from a time when material scarcity met unmatched ingenuity. Once used to provide warmth and comfort to soldiers in the field, this wool now takes new shape in a bag built for movement and meaning.
The dense, textured fabric tells its own story—of nights under open skies, of letters home, of endurance in the face of adversity. No two are alike, with subtle variations that reveal the passage of time and the journey it’s taken to reach your hands.
Soft, strong, and steeped in legacy—this Hopper invites you to carry the past forward.
The Hopper is your go-to adventure bag that won’t weigh you down. The half-moon shape and size are trend forward and super unique. Why this is the bag for you: the zipper closure ensures you can move freely without worry of anything falling out. That bike ride, hike, or wild day out with the kiddos has nothing on this bag. Wear it cross body or classically on your shoulder. The comfortable guitar strap allows you to wear this bag comfortably for hours into your adventure, and we love that for you.

Inspiration Behind the Name:
Grace Hopper—She Developed a New Computer Language
Setting the scene: It’s 1928. Grace Hopper graduates from Vassar with a bachelor’s degree in Mathematics and physics. She’s determined to learn more—it’s been this way since she was a little girl. She plans to get her masters and Ph.D. from Yale and she is certain she can do it. This is just the beginning of Miss Grace Hopper.
Writing her legacy: At a young age she showed promising and frankly ultra-impressive initiative. She was determined to serve her country in a huge way and joined the United States Navy Reserve. Her insane smarts landed her a role on the Bureau of Ships Computation Project where she eventually suggested the use of a new programming language using English in place of symbols. Naturally, people were hesitant but were curious. This was the beginning of the computer language “COBOL”. Hopper went on to serve in the military and built important systems for 43 years and retired with the rank of Rear Admiral and decorated with countless awards (excuse us while we pick up our jaw from the floor). Even after her retirement, she worked as a consultant to Digital Equipment Corporation aiding on committees, lecturing, and visiting engineering facilities. Her success in a male dominated field deserves a standing ovation. You go Grace!
Fun fact: she coined the term “debugging” in reference to fixing an issue within a computer when she found an actual moth within the system.
