28 years ago I started stitching bags in a small workshop in the Cotswolds. Just me, a bench by the window, and more hope than sense.
This week I'm moving to a bigger shop — and everything here has to go before I do.
So for the first time in thirty-eight years: every bag 60% off, plus a free gift with every order.
Not because I have to. Because you're the reason I get to move at all.

Lifetime Craftsmanship Guarantee
28 years of stitching bags, and fewer than a handful have ever come back to me. That's not luck — it's the leather I choose and the way I stitch it, by hand, the way I was taught.
Which is why every bag comes with my lifetime guarantee. If a seam gives or a strap wears through, send it back and I'll put it right. For as long as you own it.
My Story
I made my first bag in 1988 in a workshop so small I could touch both walls if I stretched my arms. No shop, no brand — just a bench by the window and a stubborn idea that if I made something well enough, someone would want it.
28 years later I'm still stitching by hand, still using the same tools my teacher gave me. The only thing that's changed is the workshop — and this week, I'm moving to a bigger one.
