Kapten & Son

Kapten & Son is a German lifestyle brand founded in Münster in 2014 – but is actually much more than just a brand:

Since our very beginning, creating a great experience at every touchpoint is at the heart of everything we do. We believe that life is a series of experiences, and we accompany people through them – with our wide range of products, from backpacks to sunglasses to travel gear and much more. Our products are innovative, functional, and aesthetically designed. They fulfill needs and exceed expectations, serve as inspiration, and accompany you through all aspects of life – from the everyday to the extraordinary. Kapten & Son is more than just a brand. It's an experience. Become a part of it and Be the Experience.

Kapten & Son meets Seven Dials. This isn’t just a location – it’s a vibe. A vibrant, creative neighborhood that connects Covent Garden Market with Soho. Here, where locals and tourists alike explore, shop, and soak in the city’s unique energy. With its mix of independent boutiques, iconic brands, cozy cafés and cultural hotspots, it’s the perfect backdrop for the Kapten & Son lifestyle.

The Kapten & Son 'Experience Store' concept is all about the experience of the products, especially the backpacks. Several 'Experience Stations' invite you to try them out:

  • MAGIC MIRROR: allows you to see yourself from behind – an innovative feature for anyone who wants to check the overall look of their outfit.
  • PACKING TABLE: With product dummies such as laptops in different sizes, water bottles and books, the backpack can be packed and tried on even when fully packed - perfect for testing its functionality in everyday life.
  • SIZE CHECK: Just like at the airport, this tool checks which backpacks, bags and suitcases comply with the standard hand luggage guidelines. A helpful tool for frequent travellers.
  • AMBIENT MIRROR: Would you like to know how your view is changed by sun and clouds? How strong is the light reflection in the snow? The ambient mirror creates different lighting scenarios at the touch of a button.

The store also offers after sale services including wristband customisation, jewellery cleaning, glasses fitting and zipper pull and suitcase wheel exchanges.
