Man About Town

Brand new bag.

I’m in the process of making a massive bag, using two Continental mountain bike tyres. The outer two strips still have the kevlar beading, I’m not sure whether the added rigidity will be a help or a hinderence.

It’s a pain in the arse when I measure out the lengths to cut them at, but they don’t match up once I’ve stitched them together.

I’ve a design for a pannier/satchel floating about in my head- possibly scribbled down somewhere. This will be the prototype. 

Some wrap-around strap bags I’ve been working on. Handsome pieces if I say so myself.

Put the last touch to Major Tom, my first Spare Tyre bag.

It’s entirely hand-stitched and thus took ages to make.

Here’s a hand-stitched bag made of bicycle tyres I’m working on while watching cartoons.

I’ve lost the feeling in my stitching fingers.

My Spare Tyre Satchel.

Entirely hand stitched and made from recycled bicycle tyres.
