:Something new!

March 5th, 2012 | No Comments » |

I have been fooling around with this thing for a little while now. The idea is simple enough, nothing hard about it but the hangups have been related to the best way to make it - I have been working on new ways to make leather carry ware that are a little bit more hi-tech than running it through the sewing machine.

So what is it?

It’s the revised version of the ‘Analogue 1‘ ride pouch. Made by yours truly from full grain Italian leather, it holds 2 tubes, a Park multitool, tyre lever, CO2 quick change, and fits perfectly in your rear pocket. I have been using the previous version for a while not and it works a treat, sitting nice and softly in my jersey pocket.

And why leather when the same thing could be done with a synthetic? Well, the nice thing about leather is that it ages the more you use it, so develops a personality which makes it uniquely yours over time. I like that. Oh, and leather is a supreme natural textile.

The revised Analogue 1 will be online end of March.
