Genuine vegetable-tanned leather from the USA Ha ndmade in our studio in New England Antique brass hardware Adjustable backpack straps Long handle to be able to wear it around your arm Three options for leather cording color- pick your favorite! Please note: The photographs are for reference. Your order will be very close but will not be the exact same because each hide has slight variations: making yours one-of-a-kind. The natural vegetable tanned products will start to darken and caramelize in color over time. How it darkens depends on what you expose it to, the environment in which it lives, the amount of light, whether it's exposed to water, dirt, or the oils on your skin. All of which will affect your leather in a very different way. The bottom line is the more you use and handle it, the darker it will become. No two vegetable tanned pieces are alike, and no pieces will ever age the exact same way. Making yours perfectly imperfect, one-of-a-kind, and individual: just like you. Please note: Bags are handmade 'with love' to order- please allow time for your order to process and your bag to be made. Show more
