Kenton Sorenson Handmade Leather Short Stay Bag

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.
