Thoughts on this leather bag maker? (Aston)

Has anyone seen/bought from this NYC-based leather bag maker? Some of their stuff is rather appealing... http://www.astonleather.com/bag/index.html

I was looking for something simple that was rugged, not a "polished" look, if you get my drift. Any suggestions? (EDIT: sorry for that typo, that was bad)
