BARKOUTSIDERS OLD CARRY HANDLE Navy Blue

"Minimal traditional life goods that imagine the art of aging." A brand created by an outsider who loves authentic, vintage, and traditional items, for other outsiders who want to be selective about every single piece they choose.
That is "Bark outsiders."
To live freely and lightly, we only need a few minimal, simple, and essential things.
We propose items that possess both the quality of essential materials and craftsmanship rooted in Japanese manufacturing, as well as an authentic atmosphere.
We want to offer "universal items that enrich the heart" like vintage pieces—things that might be slightly inconvenient, but can be used forever with deep affection.
Having worked in the fashion industry, I often found myself thinking, "I wish I had an item like this," based on my own style, but could never quite find it...
That is exactly why I started this brand with the feeling of creating necessary tools rather than just fashion.
Furthermore, the number of Japanese materials and factories with high technical skills is decreasing year by year, so we cherish products that respect their craftsmanship.
Nothing would make me happier than for you to experience how much attention to detail goes into these pieces when you hold them in your hands.

"Handles that age along with your canvas tote"
"aging with the canvas tote"
Totes like Bean Totes or Helmet Bags tend to have handles that wear out sooner or later. They fade in color, and some even end up tattered.
As a vintage lover, I wondered if I could create an item that turns this common issue into something positive... That was the beginning of this handle.
Since we are particular about the bags themselves, we used Italian Vachetta leather to create an atmosphere with an imported feel.
Because this vegetable-tanned Vachetta leather is thoroughly impregnated with oil, it develops a luster and darkens in color, evolving into a unique aging process all your own.
Also, hardware from old American outdoor brands often features an antique gold brass color.
These snaps are made with genuine brass plating not typically sold on the market, allowing you to enjoy the unique aging that only real brass can provide.
With its comfortable grip and the supple feel unique to aged leather, this product allows you to enjoy the aging of both the leather and your canvas tote together.
