Bags made to be carried for decades.
Waxed leather and heavy canvas, cut and stitched by hand in a small workshop near Bicester. If anything wears out, we fix it for free.
Six bags. That's it.
We'd rather make a few things properly than a lot of things quickly. Each one is made to order in about two weeks.
“Six years, two continents, one strap replaced.”Tom, Day Pack owner since 2020
Two people, one bench, no shortcuts.
Every bag is cut from a single hide, saddle-stitched with waxed linen thread and finished by hand. It takes longer. It also means the stitches don't come undone.
Free repairs, for life.
Straps, stitching, buckles, zips. If it breaks, we fix it. You only pay the postage one way.

Back to you, free
Cleaned, re-waxed and returned with a note of what we did.
Three things, chosen carefully.
Vegetable-tanned leather
From a family tannery in Walsall. It darkens and softens the more you use it.
Waxed cotton canvas
18oz and shower-proof. Re-wax it once a year and it'll outlast you.
Solid brass fittings
No plating to flake off. Buckles and rivets that age to a soft gold.
“It looked good new. It looks better now, three years in.”
“The strap snapped after I caught it on a gate. Came back fixed in a week, no charge.”
“Bought the tote for my wife. Now I've had to buy my own.”
