Kenton Sorenson Handmade Leather Short Stay Bag

Shared by Mystech

Lovely piece of work… not sure about buying a bag that might cost more than the “short stay” it is designed for though.

Kenton Sorenson designs simple, elegant leather goods in his Wisconsin studio. His pieces are made from salt-cured, vegetable-tanned leathers from “unbranded male cattle hides raised by American ranchers – a type less than 1% of all available hides.” Each piece is “cut, oiled, conditioned with beeswax, and hand stitched using a heavy thread prior to the installation of hardware when appropriate.” Shown above is the Short Stay Bag. The bag has a padded handle with baseball stitching and a shoulder strap. All hardware is nickel plated. All this handcrafting and attention to detail isn’t cheap; the Short Stay Bag is $1700.00. Kenton Sorenson also offers an iPad envelope case, iPad sleeve, iPhone cases, and other items in his online store.
