Ötzi The Iceman's Pocket

December 08, 2023

Have you ever wondered how the past can inspire the future? Today, we take you on a fascinating journey back in time to uncover the story behind the name Ötzi Pocket. It all begins with a remarkable discovery in the Ötztal Alps, between Italy and Austria.

The Discovery of Ötzi

In 1991, a pair of German hikers stumbled upon something extraordinary – the well-preserved mummy of a man who lived around 5,300 years ago, during the Copper Age. This mummy, affectionately named Ötzi, after the Ötztal Alps where he was found, offers a rare and invaluable glimpse into the lives of our ancestors.

Ötzi's Life and Times

Ötzi, believed to have been around 45 years old at his time of death, was found with over 60 tattoos and was preserved with his clothing and gear. This included a copper axe, a quiver of arrows, and a unique piece of gear – a pouch sewn into his waistband.

The Pouch: A Source of Inspiration

This pouch, intriguing in its simplicity and functionality, captured our imagination. It was Ötzi's solution to carrying his essentials – a primitive, yet ingenious approach to personal storage. This ancient pouch, sewn directly into his clothing for easy access and security, sparked the idea for Ötzi Pocket.

Modern Interpretation: Ötzi Pocket
