Made in Mumbai, India
by ALBERT TUSK
“ We are compulsive artists — interested in old textiles and new art; archival film and digital images; salvaged material and abstract ideas. Our approach is not nostalgic; instead, to celebrate what’s enduring about design. That middle ground of time-honored craft and timeless form. We are a design house that creates beautiful life-ready goods. We are a brand that stands for simplicity in a complex life. "
Founders Classic Backpack
The Founders Backpack is a lyrical ode to the classic school backpack. While the throwback is nostalgic, the interpretation is not. The leather is hand-oiled for softness and fluidity. A roomy interior has multiple conveniences, including a built-in laptop sleeve and a cleverly concealed rear zippered pocket that holds valuables away from view. A handwoven top-carry leather handle and Ajrakh interior lining accent the design.
