Horsehide x Shell Weekender No. 319

Designed in a unique shape that is slightly vintage yet very functional.  The top zipper opens 31" wide for easy-access to the interior. Two front straps can be used for carrying a magazine, newspaper or an umbrella.  The contrasting Horween Shell Cordovan accents gives them a unique and bold look. The top is secured with a stout Ykk #10 (USA) brass zipper and each piece is individually serial-numbered.

We start with a truly amazing horsehide leather tanned by Horween of Chicago.  Considered to be one of the most experienced and worlds finest tanneries of Shell Cordovan and Horsehide, we are excited whenever we can build products from these two leathers.  

Our very first PIONEER SHOP campaign was made from the same leathers but in a black. This was one of our best-selling campaigns in 2018 and we still get customers asking for a re-stock.  The horsehide we chose this time is in a deep brown or Espresso color. It is one of Horween's oldest tannages, used in the 1930's for mostly industrial purposes. What they found out later and we love, is how well this leather looks and performs in a bag.  It has incredible durability but relatively light-weight and very malleable. We strategically placed Shell Cordovan pieces to enhance the appearance and strengthen the handles and smooth, heavy Horween Latigo for handles and straps. The look, feel and leather in these bags make them heirloom pieces that you will be proud to own. 

All designed, cut and crafted in USA
