Members shtoink Posted August 1, 2013 Members Report Posted August 1, 2013 There's a huge amount of detail in every aspect of that thing. It's hard to believe that this is your first backpack. Quote
Members WinterBear Posted August 1, 2013 Members Report Posted August 1, 2013 There it is. I must have overlooked the post. I still want to hear more about it. How did you sew it? What's Kodiak oil-tanned? What does your son plan to haul--it looks like it would take a load of bricks without popping a stitch. Quote

What's Kodiak oil-tanned? What does your son plan to haul--it looks like it would take a load of bricks without popping a stitch. Bear, I sewed it all by hand. Every stitch and it is all Saddle Stitched, so Really strong. Kodiak is the oil tanned Leather I got from Tandy Leather. It is their name for it. Still cow but nice pebble grain and a rich pull. For now he wants to use it when we camp, as it is too big for his HS lockers. But I think in Collage, he'll really like having the room to haul stuff. It weighs 7.4 pounds empty and I think would hold about everything a youngster would need for collage. And then some! Quote
