Many of you emailed me and were confused so I made a new video. Click on the pic below to see it. The link will take you to the Urban Explorer Bag page and then just scroll down to the bottom of the page to watch it.
The free leather journal with 2 refills and the free 3 initial personalization are still available for this for the next day or two. No coupon code required but this special free offer cannot be combined with any other offers.
What I failed to mention in the video was that this bag comes with an extra set of strap for the back. You can see them on the bottom in this picture above. Well, we are now giving you an extra set for the top part as well.
Btw... I was able to fit all my audio gear (large pro mic, 2 small tripods, phone attachment stuff and cables) into that roll up tool pouch. It completely filled it up and the straps were more than long enough to wrap it securely to the bottom.
Below is the original email I sent re. this bag... just in case you missed it.
About 8 years ago, very late on a Wednesday evening, I bought a one way train ticket from Santa Fe (Lamy actually) to Chicago.
Thursday I made the bag you see below and early Friday morning hopped on the train to Chicago, carrying my new bag.
That trip ended 2 weeks later on the East Coast in CT and you won't believe what was there waiting for me when I arrived home at the Albuquerque airport... not in forever will you be able to guess it. But what was there will make some of you smile REALLY BIG and it will bless others in their core.
My Old Friend
It is a completely one off bag, imperfect, and I carried it for over 8 years (took the pic today) until I made this one below, the Urban Explorer, which is my new GO TO bag.
It holds my thermos (strapped to the back), canister of tea (strapped to the front), glasses, books, pens, extra paper, the 6.5x13 inch sheets I like to draw plans with, a ceramic gaiwan and 2 ceramic cups, a strainer, a rag...
...and I still cannot fill it up. Just can't do it.
It will hold an iPad or the big Samsung tablet but not my laptop which, I don't carry with me anyway.
The NEW GoTo Bag
I can load it up or I can compact it down to near nothing.
It is bombproof but lightweight made of full grain Italian leather that is soft and supple and will get softer over time and develop a remarkable patina.
As some of you know, our leather is unique. It is made exclusively for us by a 6th generation tannery in Italy. It took 2 years of working together to get it right.
This bag will continue to hold my stories and pass them down to my new grandson, Eiger, when he is ready to carry a bag, this bag even, at which time he and I will sit down and I will share it's secrets.
Oh... I almost forgot. I carry my journal in there too and...
You can't buy the journal I use but...
you can get it for FREE
if you buy the bag.
You can get it with or without the patch that says "Places my Soul has Been".
It comes with 2 - 40 page blank refills.
AND, I will even put your 3 initials on it for free as well.
But only for the next few days.
Tomorrow, along with pictures from my journal, I will tell you what was waiting for me at the airport.
See you then.
Safe Travels from Alex and I!
