Harris Tweed Tiree Backpack in Green
Our Tiree backpack is handcrafted in Scotland from various shades of Harris Tweed. Internally it is lined with terracotta 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 an internal zip pocket.
The adjustable strap is made from Full Grain Vegetable Tanned leather, as is the flap closure. 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. All the leather has 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.
