The core of the HUDSON is cut as one continuous piece of full-grain, 8-IOoz, vegetable tanned leather. Its folded design results in very few seams, strengthening its load and use capacities. The leather is deeply seasoned with oils, waxes, and tallows to persevere through whatever elements you encounter. Solid brass hardware is used for all linkage and buckling - just like your Grandfather’s cart horse harnesses.

The HUDSON is crafted to serve you until you need its service no more. Your work is to log the hours, steep the ideas, settle the vision, draft the models, overcome the obstacles, temper the frame, hone the edges, and deliver the gain. Whatever your work, may the HUDSON make it that much more of an organized pleasure!

The RUTHERFORD is a sturdy, comfortable, and adaptable backpack that is designed with purpose and pleasure in mind.

The structural core of the RUTHERFORD is cut from one continuous piece of beautiful 9-10oz vegetable tanned leather. The main cavity measures 15” x 12” x 5” (h/w/d) and has an inner sleeve for stowing paperwork or an iPad. The outer pocket measures 10” x 9.5” x 1.5”. Both side panels of the RUTHERFORD are prepared for you to improvise with bump cord or your favorite MOLLE accessories so that you can truly adapt this bag to your usage and desires.

The 3” wide shoulder straps disperse the weight and gently taper toward our solid brass tension locks which tightly cinch the 1” MIL-SPEC webbing, securing the load comfortably over and to your frame. Solid copper rivets reinforce all points of pull and stress, and braided waxed cord is used throughout where hand stitching is preferred.

At the moment, the RUTHERFORD comes in three colors: Saddle, Brown, and Black.

No more notches.

We measure our waists in inches, but who lives in increments of a hard inch? Life lies between the notches.

Our HIDESMAN belt meets you where you are at. The slider buckle is cut from your choice of quarter inch thick solid brass, copper, stainless steel, or blackened cold rolled steel and allows you to hold YOUR pants against YOUR waist.

Never too tight, never too loose.

Let us know your waist size (pant size) and we will go from there. The full-grain, vegetable tanned belt leather is an inch and a half wide, and ten to twelve ounces thick. We believe you will find it to be a most comfortable Belt.

Our custom strap is crafted to fit you.

There is no adjustment lacing to figure out, no buckle to nick your instrument, no stitching to unravel, just one cut of beautiful full grain, tumbled, supple, veg-tanned bovine. Simply let us know the length you would like from endpin to endpin.

Your strap measures two and three quarters inches where it rests on your trap and comes in two tempers: Backstrap and Brisket. Both lay gently over the shoulder.

BACKSTRAP: cut from the spine section of the hide where the grain runs more vertically throughout the leather resulting in a fuller temper and graceful flow. It is a premium cut of leather as only a few can be drawn from each side.

BRISKET: cut from the more flexible sections of the hide where the grain begins to lean horizontally throughout the leather resulting in a softer temper and more pliable drape.
