Epaulet 21oz Sashiko Tote Bag Project
Hey guys! So, we're in the final stages of sewing for these bags, and I made a few executive decisions...
1) We added a hanging interior pocket which can hold keys and a phone.
2) We're moving the Epaulet label to the inside on all bags. I think that everyone's gong to be happier with that.
3) We've put a stitched fold into the bottom corners so that it can be rested more easily on the ground.
4) I'll add an option to order the bag in natural. It looks cool, but you'll have to note that it's going to be a lot bigger (I'll put exact measurements, but it's about 2.5" in both directions) and the fabric might have small marks or discoloration on it. This is deadstock cloth and it's being made on really rugged denim machines, so I can't guarantee that it's going to be perfectly off-white. For the dyed colors, this obvs doesn't matter.
The good part is that you can see the rad selvedge line of this cloth.
5) We'll probably have some stock units to sell after the project closes, but they'll only be Azure and Shadow Ink (our best sellers). And they'll be $135. So if you want a bag in Army, Merlot, Mink, Magenta, or Natural.. doing the preorder is going to be the only way.
