A backpack you'll be proud to carry both inside and outside the gym. Rich and supple, equally rugged and refined. With a natural grain that moulds to your habits, developing patina over time that's unique to you.
A timeless athletic bag that offers the same performance on day one thousand as it did on day one.
My first memories of training were of leather speed balls and well-worn heavy bags. These pieces had hung in the gym since the turn of the previous century and yet were still the toughest things in the gym. While other forms of exercise equipment fell victim to wear and the effects of time, the leather stayed on while we trained, echoing the riffs from Eye of the Tiger as we dreamed of our own Rocky Balboa training montages.
Twenty-five years later, I still find inspiration in the smell of leather and the feel of an old leather heavy bag. I want to recreate that feeling, that gym atmosphere before the time of elliptical trainers, smartwatches, and large, clunky treadmills.
Leather yields strength and longevity. It's timeless and holds a sense of heritage. This is a bag I'm proud to carry both inside and outside the gym. One that will wear in over time, rather than wear out. A bag that will only get better with age, developing a unique patina as is it moulds to me and my training.
