Stanley & Sons - ManMade USA

A while ago, Thipchat Arthasarnprasit contacted me and told me about a project he was working on called ManMade USA. He came by the studio and made this nice video about Stanley & Sons. I am very honored to be included in a series that also speaks to Michael Williams of ACL and Pete Searson of Telleson. Thank you TA, I think it turned out great.

Backpack

We are real psyched to finally release this bag. We have been working on it for a while now and ready to share. Shown below in natural canvas, we are also making it available in our waxed canvas colors and hand-dyed brown or black leather. I really hope you like it.

Double Loaf

We originally made this bag for an art show at Tartine Bakery in San Francisco specifically to hold two loaves of bread. We liked it so much that we made it slightly bigger, added a pocket and made it in various fabrics. The below assortment went to Mohawk General Store.

Mini Messenger

We made a batch of mini messenger bags for Mohawk General Store in LA. With hand-dyed brown leather in both dark brown and black waxed canvas. These will also be available in all of our waxed canvas colors.

Tote with leather boot

Below are examples of our totes with 3.5oz hand-dyed leather boots. We are now offering this style in all of our waxed canvas colors as well as a natural unwaxed canvas with either brown or black leather.

Secret Forts Fall Three

If you go over to Secret Forts right now you can see my very insightful list for his Fall Three. James was very kind to include me in this. Thank you bucko.

Stanley & Sons for Unionmade Indigo Collection

I was very happy when asked to be a part of the Unionmade Indigo Collection. We made a Cone indigo duck cloth apron with hand-dyed leather straps and pockets. I posted some pictures of the process a while back. These aprons were really fun to make and I am very happy with how they turned out. This apron is exclusively available through Unionmade online and in stores.
