Kenton Sorenson Handmade Leather Short Stay Bag

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.

Beautiful bag but one hell of a price! :)

The bag only holds clothes for a short stay because it knows you don’t have enough money for a long stay after buying it! ;)
