I have a thing for bags. I love how they are so utilitarian and necessary (and have probably existed as long or longer than clothing has in human history), but at the same time can be almost infinitely customized and arted up. I own several bags I really love, though I’m always chasing that elusive ‘perfect’ bag (simultaneously realizing there probably isn’t one). Currently I’m stuck on this idea of handmade bags, namely waxed cotton canvas utilitarian-yet-awesome bags. This one by Peg and Awl is seriously cool — the leather is reclaimed from vintage military applications. It might just find its way into my collection. There is a competitor bag for my waxed-canvas affections however; I’ll post about it soon.
