black horse culatta hybrid backpack
description
the versatile bag has been cut from a butter soft full grain 2.5mm vegetable tanned, washed and tumbled horse culatta leather with a visible layer of subdermal cordovan, and an aniline matte black dye treatment.
culatta is a special cut combined of the rear just above the cordovan, the belly middles and the hind shanks, offering a dense structure, tight grain and medium to firm temper.
crafted with a single piece pattern construction, the bag is hand sewn with our signature overlocked sides in a tonal 0.75mm hand waxed Japanese linen thread over a 40 hour period. the unlined interior features a full length riri zipper pocket with a custom 10 hour slow oxidised zipper pull, a large open pocket and three card slots.
a wrap around panel creates two exterior pockets to the front and rear with shoe sole nails to the base. a rear center carry handle is complimented by a large shoulder strap that can be disconnected and reattached and threaded through a rear loop to work as backpack straps.
hand forged iron hardware forms the front closure and rear strap adjustments for the hand stitched double layer shoulder/backpack strap. the bag is finished off with a riri m8 zipper closure and custom iron zipper pull.
each piece comes in a hand made leather package.
custom leathers, sizes and finishes are available upon request.
