Brief

Jowpack grew from a white-label backpack manufacturer in China into a global e-commerce brand aimed at travelers and professionals, with smart, stylish products. The manufacturer wanted its own brand after seeing digital work done for another backpack brand. ALICED&Co led the branding and marketing to establish Jowpack as a trusted name in travel gear.

Name

The first task was a name. Starting from brand keywords (traveller, adventurous, dreamer, trendy, successful, smart), the brand became a traveler on a journey of wonder around the world. “Jowpack” comes from “Journey of Wonder”.

Logo

A sleek symbol that combines the letter J and a path, for journeys and connectivity. The logotype uses the Womby typeface for modernity and legibility.

Brand voice
