this. i cant believe that the suede backpacks sell and this one had a hard time getting people on board..
What materials are you going to make bags out of if not leather? More varied line of suede bags?
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.
he's gonna make that damn bone suede bag for me I swear
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)
Here's one more parting detail shot of that bag before I send it off:
