Even though the price was just a little bit higher, the 300 hundred bracket for a backpack is a little eh

A lot of people were wanting sample pics, probably going to be crying for Drew to make a run of them

Not gonna make a run of them unless 5-10 people simultaneously stepped up and paid me, like today - the guy said he doesn't want to make any more like that and I want to move on to some new bags. I think that black lamb one will be the swan song for the TOJ Daypack, at least for a good while.

It'll just be calfskin or something else, not suede this time though. Bagmaker was just a bit put off by the fact that we bring in this awesome lambskin and due to it's shape, you only get little pieces out of it and the rest gets scrapped. The guy gave me back about 2.5" of cut zipper tape, sans stopper or pull, left over from the lamb backpack project, so apparently he just doesn't like wasting stuff.

well, we might make suede. There's definitely gonna be some smooth leathers in the mix this time around though. Fok wants to make a bag and it's very similar to something I had in my head a few years ago, and so that seems destined to happen. Been piecing bits for that, at least the hardware for a sample to send over.

also, a tubular, traditional structured duffle bag, like a gym bag. We might make a softy too but I think a more traditional one will turn out really nice, stuff like that is this guy's bag (har)

I mean I'm going to buy the bag pretty much regardless, unless you super **** up the design; which I don't see happening. I need a bag desperately and I'm holding out for yours.

I'm on board as well if it gets made, sounds ridiculously sick.

Here's one more parting detail shot of that bag before I send it off:
