Inspired by saddle bags but with a modern closure, each bag is made of 2/4 leather, with a pocket 

Oxblood has interior and exterior pocket

Black has exterior on back only 

Each item is unique, it’s my version of art in leather form, I create in small batches, entirely by with my own hands, from cutting to stitching to hardware, there’s no machinery in my process. I use vegetable tanned leather, leather that shows the rich life it lived before, from bug bites to brands to stetchmarks, it’s written on the hide of these bags, with no two being exactly the same. I create using the whole hide, purposely leaving the imperfections and arranging the bag so they sit on the back, after all what better way to honour this material than using every scrap possible? 

Made with love on our small farm in Alberta Canada

Thank you for your support.

With love,
