          Bag made by Jan, out and about earlier in London:



          iPad, Midori Traveler's Notebook, pen, tweed baseball cap, a magazine, assorted papers and a few books. Everything you need on a quick trip across London.

                        Thanks! First attempt on something bigger than small cell phone pouches and card holders 🙂  got a new shipment of leather today, so I'll try to make a shallower/taller more "satchel"-kind of bag this time around 🙂 Must say that I love working with leather. The smell, the feel, the ruggedness.. it is great!

                            Thanks 🙂

                            Quick leather and design related question to you guys:

                            I'm making a smaller, more satchel-like bag now (no side-pockets, small front-pocket, camera + 1-2 lenses + ipad bag), I was originally planning on just keeping it veg-tanned natural. Any reasons not to? Will it just look weird? Alternative is to dye it burgundy or mahogny.

                            Seize the day and don't you cry.

                              Keep it natural. It will darken beautifully.

                                Today I want to introduce you my new wallet.
                                Made by the little leathershop here in Dresden, that made my belts too.
                                I made the patterns out of paper and they made it after my advice.
                                It was the first time they made something like that and it´s not perfect in all details but I´m very happy with the result, especially for the price I had to pay.

                                The zipper is from a old pair of my flare Levis.

                                    both items do look great. Chuck it´s always nice to have such an artisan around the corner…would love to have something similar down here...
