I've been looking for great vintage canvas bags like these Forest Bound ones, and now I can finally end my search. All I need now is the loot to afford my favorite one (check out the lead image and then pan left).
Made wholly from one-of-a-kind salvaged and found materials across the New England, Forest Bound bags are reasonably priced considering its unique appeal. Featuring canvas, leather and cotton recyclables, this is definitely a collection I'm a huge fan of.
