Well, this is a little heartbreaking. 💔

My supplier has officially discontinued this ridiculously gorgeous burgundy plum leather. 🥲

BUT (because every sad story needs a plot twist) I managed to get my hands on the LAST FIVE HIDES.

Five. That’s it. No secret stash. No restock coming.

So, if a burgundy plum Smithco bag has been on your wishlist, consider this your very stylish heads-up.

Once this leather is gone, it’s gone. 💜

DM me if you’d like to claim your piece of this disappearing act.

Somewhere between errands and an adventure… that’s usually where the good stuff happens.

Made for days things don’t quite go according to plan — and the bags that come along for the ride. 🖤

Travel in style. Obviously. 😉

British Racing Green, buttery leather and enough room to make questionable decisions about how much you really need to pack.

The kind of duffel that makes you want to leave immediately.

POV: you said you were popping in for just one bag…

Then things escalated.

One became two.
Two became … well apparently this.

No regrets, obviously.

Coffee’s always in season.

So is a good bag.

Summer is on the way, and every coffee date deserves a companion. Swipe through the line-up: every bag hand made by me at my workshop in Cape Town.

Here’s to Saturday morning coffee dates.

POV: my kind of therapy. Making something completely new. Figuring it out as I go does the world of good for my head.

Lara Croft tomb raider belt and holsters ready for the 30 year anniversary!

Good light, good friends, good leather.

Handmade in Cape Town and made to go everywhere. Lasts forever.

So …where has all this leather been going?

Russia. The US. And just around the corner. And a few places I can’t tell you about just yet.

There have been local orders, special orders, stock for a new outlet, and a whole lot of cutting, stitching, finishing and packing happening behind the scenes.

Just me. My workshop. And lots of bags.

Apparently they’re getting around. 🌍

Proof a good bag doesn’t age, it just gathers good stories. I hand stitched this bag 5 years ago. It still holds a laptop, still draws comments and the owner still uses it all the time. It’s good looking, but not as good looking as the owner (he’s my hubby, I’m allowed to say so 😆)

Made to last.
