Harris Tweed Tarbert Backpack in Blue Herringbone
Our Tarbert backpack is handcrafted in Scotland from a blue herringbone Harris Tweed. Internally it is lined with blue water resistant cotton fabric. It has a zip fold over flap closure secured by Sam Browne screws. There are two external YKK zip pockets, one on the front and one on the back. There is an internal padded pocket for devices, as well as two internal zip pockets.
The adjustable strap is made from Full Grain Vegetable Tanned leather, as are the flap closures, all of which have been hand cut, polished and saddle stitched. Saddle stitching is a traditional hand sewing technique where two needles are used to create a stitch, that is extremely durable and visually beautiful. Vegetable tanned leather is leather that has been tanned using natural tannins found in organic materials like tree bark and leaves, rather than using chemical tanning agents. This traditional method results in a unique, durable leather that develops a rich patina over time as it ages.
