A new east+west shape is now available in the 1903 line.

An early fascination with turn of the century industry and trades inspired the 1903 and 1904.

The idea that in that time of immigration and hence immense growth as a nation, one would wear a uniform of their trade or profession for their entire working life. This uniform was meant to show the patina of one's daily toil. In researching these uniforms of utility, I imagined a hybrid of what a bag that these founders might use collectively. 

When I have visited our flagship store I am amazed at how these bags resinate with all ages. The thirteen year old with permission to pick out anything she likes will land here, and the sixty year old planning his or her tenth trip to Europe will land here as well. This gender-neutral line has a timeless appeal and is meant to show age and be passed down.
