A High Quality Travel Leather Bag

Posted by Sandra on - -


leather travel bag

Several post ago, I whined about my latest want, this unbelievable Mulholland brothers Leather bag for my many weekend safari trips, no doubt.
But, as is normally the case for my dreary motivation, I never followed through with more examples of attractive weekender travel bags, nor did I have the disposable cash flow to make the safari bag emerge. while I’m still wondering if said cash flow will ever stop alluding me (sneaky, sneaky $), at least I can share my newest favorites with you good folks, and together we can want, want, want to our heart’s content and bask in the loveliness of glorious design from punk to chic to classic. Mind you, there’s completely nothing wrong with the bag I have now, but I’ve had it forever (thanks, grandma!) and a girl can dream.
Some are priced within our “normal people” reach and some are so LOL able, I’m almost 184% optimistic they will never appear in my (or your) “to buy” list. (Like that slick, buttery, mulberry beauty, for example.) oh, and I’ll have you know, if it weren’t for the trust that I could one day find these beauties for much less on eBay, that hopeful percentage would be much senior.

Latest Biometric Shoe Identifies Individuals

Posted by Sandra on - -


Leather shoe

Forget fingerprinting, voice gratitude, or even retinal scans. Access to high-security areas could soon hinge on the way you swagger. Researchers at Carnegie Mellon University’s new Pedo-Biometrics Lab are working to great a shoe insert that can help monitor access to nuclear power plants, military bases, and other critical communications. Everyone has unique feet and single ways of walking. By using sensors to gauge foot force and gait, the bio-sole’s microcomputer can compare patterns of association with existing records. If the patterns line up, the insole becomes latent. If they don’t, it sets off a wireless alarm.
The lab, which secured $1.5 million in startup backing, is a partnership with Autonomous ID, a Canadian company that specializes in low-cost ID technology. Todd Gray, the company’s president, not only claims that the system is no thicker than the foot pads you discover at the drug store, but it can also ID a person within three steps.
Prototypes already exhibit an accuracy rate of more than 99 percent, but the Carnegie Mellon team will broaden the tests to include “a full gamut of society: big, tall, thin, heavy, athletic, multicultural, on a diet, twins and so on,” he said.
Beyond checking a person’s security permission, the bio-sole could also have medical applications. Several papers obtainable this month at the Alzheimer’s Association International Conference in Vancouver suggest that changes in a senior person’s pace and stride can augur the onset of dementia.

handmade leather bag

I have been designing and creating gorgeous works of imagination and fragility for many years now and have built a reputation for perfect contemporary leather handbags. With new works continually being made available, there is never a lack of fine styles and colours to choose from.
I was bought up in Hungary, and have always been enthralled by our heritage, our folklore, and the traditions of our land, and have dedicated myself to weaving those traditions in to the modern fashion climate.
I have a passion for the naked beauty and raw potency of leather, in terms of both its visual and functional individuality. I strive to embrace leather's logically evocative colours and textures throughout the creative process"
I use many alternate of leather for my handbags and accessories, but personal to my roots of course is Hungary Leather. Hungary Leather is leather brown from alum, common salt, and suet; this very quick tanning process that was used for shoe laces and horse utensils. This type of leather was very strong leather and could be brown in about two months versus the 6 to 8 months of vegetable leather.

Study Finds Owning Cool Latest Leather Jacket More Rewarding Than Raising Children

Posted by Sandra on - -


Leather Jacket

A study released Thursday by the appeasing Parenting Institute found that owning a gravely cool leather jacket is significantly more fulfilling than raising a child to adulthood. "Our research suggests that the feeling of purchasing a really amazing leather jacket and then arrogantly watching over time as it gradually becomes broken in and forms completely to your body is, by a very wide margin, more rewarding than conceiving a child and then raising it from birth to 18 years of age," said guide canvasser Dr. Marcus Aiello, adding that it was on average 63 percent more rewarding to regularly condition a leather jacket that had awesome vertical zippers on the sleeves than it was to read nightly bedtime stories to a son or daughter. “When study participants also obtained just the right pair of faded jeans and some vintage harness motorbike boots to go with their badass leather jacket, these enormous feelings of pride and approval reached levels that caused similar feelings stemming from attending a child's college commencement to become statistically irrelevant.” Aiello also noted that the average cost of raising a child is estimated to be $400,000; an amount researchers sharp out was a good deal higher than the price of a mint-condition 1971 supercharged Plymouth Barracuda.

Vintage Locavoirs, Leather and Mindfulness

Posted by Sandra on - -

Vintage Leather

Part of the great effort of both the vintage leather business and the new leather business is that of ethics.  Mindfulness is that procedure of becoming aware of the self and seeing all things as unified.  The local food society is an example of mindful shopping where participants prefer to buy from local producers where they know the source of their food and how it was grown vs. buying by price.  Oddly my leather jacket project Himel Brothers has taught me valued lessons on the kinds of problems that aboriginal manufacturers may have faced as they progressed their business.  Daily I get 2 to 3 emails and spams to this blog from Pakistani leather manufacturers offering to make me jackets from my patterns for the price of 47-57 dollars per jacket.  How amazing!  I cannot even pay for the leather in one jacket at that price.  It makes for a very attractive debate amongst my clientele and my retailers about costs and pricing.
 Now I generally don't think something I make is standard.  Certainly I seek to not only achieve the quality and quality of my vintage collection in my new jackets but I am also trying to achieve the zen nature and permanence that original jackets imbued.  Environmentally speaking I have to know each of my suppliers, and design great life long lasting styles that are made of right materials.  While not 100% local in the sense of pending from my neighborhood or Province, each supplier is vetted for what they are creation and how they are making.  Perhaps the differences between fondly grown horses, slaughtered and gently treated and then vegetable brown in tree bark in Japan is not always
 Readily apparent to the consumer?  The jackets are not permanent, nor do they glow with electronica or transport the wearer to another planet.  Simply put the pressures for me are to make perfect technical replicas out of natural materials and not be the guy using my skills and information to make 47 dollar jackets in Pakistan and sell them for half of what I am presently doing.  People ask me why and how I do belongings.  I think to myself. I make life long lasting, beautiful, well made, well sourced organic jackets that like my period collection will age and die gracefully.  It is incredible to think about when you are business your next 200 dollar made in (where ever) jacket all that power and all the pessimism that goes into making something cheaply will be worn right on your back!  Producers back in the day sought to be price competitive whilst mounting features, branding and quality.  Old makers reached the pinnacles of that example and new competitors could only struggle on pricing.  It was that downward push on pricing via cheaper imports and a less educated customer that lead to the extinction of domestic garment makers.  How sad really because the shopper actually stopped caring about what they were exhausting and chose simulated fashion, or simulated quality in respect to price!

NEW BLACKBIRD NATURAL LEATHER FOOTWEAR

Posted by Sandra on - -


Natural Leather Footwear

We had been communicating back and forth with Los Angeles based shoemaker George Esquivel with some ideas for custom footwear and, to go along with our already sturdy appreciation for raw denim and other aging products, we found it very appropriate to go forward with a boot made from completely natural, untended leather. These boots and shoes have been a long time coming and we are very happy to have a final creation to show to our customers.
As with all Esquivel shoes, these are completely handmade down in the USA in a process which takes over one hundred steps to total followed by another two weeks to allow for each shoe to dry naturally on their last/mold to ensure that they completely retain their shape. Due to the easily scheming nature of this natural leather, each of these steps has become a white glove process from start to finish lessening the option of marks on the shoes previous to purchase.
The natural leather comes from a tannery in Norway which has remained family run since the late 1800s and equipment leathers for luxury houses around the world. This leather has had only a neutral color cream applied and is, as mentioned above, otherwise merely natural. Each pair is going to age and dim through wear, exposure to sunlight, and overall how they are treated by the wearer. Within weeks no two pairs are going to look something alike!
If the wearer prefers the clean "nude" look of the normal leather, we recommend a neutral color wax to be practical prior to wear. This will help stay away dirt as you wear them. Otherwise, the shoes will be quick to take in wear and dirt to become single to the wearer.
