We had shoes in our house that we didn’t use anymore. Even though we didn’t use them, we couldn’t dispose of them for sentimental reasons; we were attached to them. I wanted to make a bag which had feet on the ground. This is how the idea of the Shoe Bag® came to my mind. I went to my workshop, cut the shoe we couldn’t give away, unstitched the sole and made a bag from it. I first made it for my wife and that is also when I named it. Everybody loved it.
I buy custom threads for each Shoe Bag® and pair it with special leather. Each one is unique. Each one has its own character and finds the correct person. Therefore one Shoe Bag® is not for another.
I prefer sofa leather (used in fournishing). It is very durable and has a sweet – hard softness to it.
Wouldn’t it be nice if I developed my Shoe Bag® a little bit more and it started walking behind us?
Unique.
Therefore, each of my products are unique. So is each and every raw leather that is chosen. Their distinctive form and texture are matchless; such as human fingerprints. Each leather that comes to my workbench has its own vital traces. I never intervene in those minor scars because each one has a story of its own.
