Locally made full grain leather tote, brand is W Durable Goods. He handmakes everything right there in his shop in extremely small batches, 1 or 2 at a time. Retail on this one is around $160 I believe, but I had some trade items and so ended up paying under $100.
Thank you!
Today is my Portland Leather Goods tote.
The brown bag is stunning! Is it a stock bag or bespoke?Both of these were under $500 USD, from Arayla in LA, well worth looking at!

Stock. I've just ordered a bespoke one in the larger size (stock only came in the smaller) and with chocolate suede lining. It's a truly lovely bag. Great value for $450 USD, they have two left in stock. And it's not that small, it'll hold quite a bit, I'm probably going to keep both sizes...The brown bag is stunning!

I love how you attach the off-white straps to make the bag look so cool!Gianfranco Ferré
I really like Radley London bags. I was wondering about the straps also, but they probably should hold up for a while. When I think of all the plastic/vegan type bags I've worn over the years, most of the time the straps seemed to hold up. It's just the little things like corners, linings, etc.My aunt and I went shopping recently and she purchased a Radley London tote. When she showed it to me it reminded me a bit of the Longchamp totes. I loved it but she bought it. Anyways, since she wasn't using it she gifted it to me this weekend and I am IN LOVE!
I am very curious as to how well the straps will hold up, so far so good
