The first thing you notice when you unwrap your new bag is the smell…it is incredible! The quality and finish of the bag are both outstanding, you will not be disappointed. It is cute and aesthetically pleasing, whilst still being practical and functional!

5 Star!
My husband surprised me with this bag. It’s amazing … every last detail has been thought of … I also got the ball holder . The quality is also fantastic and it looks so much more expensive than it actually is. Well done

Love this- it’s my new everyday bag!
I take it on my commute, I’ve taken it on holiday and of course when I’m walking my dog it’s with me. It’s strong, comfortable & has handy pockets. It also looks really smart.

DESIGN
Every one of our designs starts as an idea, usually conceived stomping accross a field on a dog walk in the glorious Yorkshire countryside. The idea is a response to a niggle or a problem that someone has mentioned which I have been mulling over.
Then its home and get the idea onto paper, usually sat at the kitchen table with a mug of tea, Yorkshire Tea, obviously!.
Once the idea is on paper its time to time to start drilling down into the nitty gritty and getting it drawn up in Adobe, and from that the product spec is created.
Its a recipie for that specific product. Totally unique.
