Going to Bandung soon? Sure, the street food is amazing and the cafe hopping is top-tier, but if you want to take your trip to the next level, you’ve gotta check out the local creative scene. Specifically, local brands like Wallts.
Here is why hunting down local gems like this should absolutely be on your Bandung itinerary:
1. It’s the ultimate authentic vibe
Forget the usual tourist traps. Exploring homegrown brands gives you a real taste of Bandung’s massive creative culture. It’s how you experience the city like a local who actually knows what’s up.
2. Premium quality without the crazy price tag
Local doesn’t mean cheap quality anymore. Brands like Wallts serve up premium, sleek, and super durable gear (their wallets and bags are elite) that easily compete with global brands—but at a fraction of the cost.
3. Next-level souvenirs
Let’s be real: your friends probably have enough boxes of brownies and pisang molen. Bringing back a stylish, functional piece of local craftsmanship is a major flex. It’s a souvenir they’ll actually use every day.
4. Super easy to find
You won’t have to go on a wild goose chase to find them. Wallts and other cool local spots are located right in the heart of Bandung’s trendiest hubs, making it incredibly easy to pop in between your coffee stops.
Pro Tip: Leave some extra room in your suitcase before you fly or drive out. You’re definitely going to need it!
