Our Natural Handmade Leather Messenger From a pristine clean to a mature patina, our natural handmade leather bag is a piece that will grow alongside you. Seen here, some of our initial behind-the-scenes images — and we hope to followup with a dedicated set of product shots in the next 1 – 2 weeks. While […]
Bridle Bag Color Guide
ACTUAL EXAMPLES While it is always difficult photographing every color option for every bag, the actual examples below should help provide a clearer picture. Further, while all of our current options do have naming conventions, we know this can be extremely confusing and we apologize in advance for the inconvenience (for example, sometimes we might […]
New Bridle Bags & Images
Still, this week, we just posted our black leather version of this bag, and we will be following up with different colors very soon. While black can be a difficult color to work with, by far, the gusset fold always looks most impressive in a dark color. To see more images, please see the slider […]
Bridle Edge Color Selections
Our New Edge Color Options As always, the difficulty in adding options to the website is documenting them — and photographing every possible bag combination can be next to impossible. Still, we will be adding swatch examples to a slideshow below. Currently, it displays our natural, light brown, dark brown, and black leather colors with […]
Our New Handmade Bag – Now in Bridle
We worked alongside two of the main US hide houses to experiment in different leather finishes and options. Simply put, we finally sourced what we consider to be the most durable, radiant, and supple leather, and in the coming months, we will be releasing some new color and bag options (could not be happier here!). […]
Natural Handmade Totes
Finally, we got around to making a natural version of our handmade totes. Unlike our dyed offerings, natural leather organically forms a beautiful patina over time. Because of this, we were really careful not to mix leather types, as different batches of leather have a habit of reacting very different to the elements. With this […]
Best Leather – Thank you!
This post is simply a quick thank you to our good friend TJ over at BestLeather.org. Bestleather is quickly becoming a great resource for leather connoisseurs, and we’ve been grateful for all of the attention they’ve paid to us over the past year. Personally, we love the BL’s photography, and the fact that they put […]
Bag Modifications
We get a lot of custom requests, sometimes too many to handle in a timely manner. And while we never mind alterations, sending photos of our past work can sometimes be challenging. With this in mind, we will be using this “Bag Modifications Page” to explain the optional features we roll out on the website. […]
Strapless AND Strapped Totes
Not a huge innovation, but we’re happy to announce that we are now offering the option to have our, currently strapless totes made with a shoulder strap. Normally, this should not warrant a blog post, but zeitgeist-like (and it’s so fascinating to us), we get an influx of common requests all at once (and we […]
Cool Hunting Studio Visit!
A very big deal for us last week (of course, being one of the only weeks we were away from the shop!), was our feature at Cool Hunting. While we don’t post often enough for our blog to be a common destination, we just want to thank everyone at Cool Hunting, especially Nara Shin–our interviewer. […]
