Woolnut was founded in Stockholm, Sweden in late October 2012 by three friends with backgrounds in design engineering and product development. With a genuine interest in tech, design and modern craftsmanship, it quickly got clear that most of the existing protection covers and sleeves for laptops lacked the combination of using extraordinary organic materials together with minimalistic and functional designs.

On these bases, the first version of a Woolnut protection sleeve was crafted one late night in a Stockholm apartment. After some time of tweaking and shaping the sleeve into perfection, a decision was made to take this new fantastic product to market. The Woolnut brand was born. Today, Woolnut has grown into a well-known Swedish leather accessories brand known for designing high-end leather products, primarily for Apple devices.
