I carry a military style backpack to work daily , keep my lunch and anything else I may need in it. Would be awesome to have a leather main bag, with molle II attachments!
Bro your videos inspire me so much because of you I started leather craft . And your videos are getting better each time. This video really stood out idk what it was but the way it was out together was so good !
I know this is a yr old but this is helping me a lot in my camera bag . Can’t quite use the insert . I carry about 5 lenses including a 600mm telephoto lens. It’s a beast .
Bro, that is a dead sexy camera back. I am going to have to get me one for sure. I do leather work but not as big of projects as that camera pack. Plus I can tell my Peeps I got it from Stock & Barrel Co. Nice leather work and great vid. By the way thanks to your Vlog with DLS I found and bought some really nice leather and supplies. DLS is my new place to go for my leather supplies, Thanks.
Great bag you made there. Great craftsmanship. Howdy there, I saw you were using a small anvil for a weight to hold your stuff down. I took some of my chap scraps (oil tan leather) & cut out a little 8" x 4" piece of leather. Fold it over into a 4" x 4" size, stitched 2 sides & 3/4 of the open end. I took some real old shotgun shells I had, cut them open & poured the shot inside for the weight until full. Then stitched the last 1/4 of the open end together. I have made others for people & used BB's to fill the pouch. Easier to use the BB's since they come in bulk. The soft chap leather doesn't scratch or indent any leather. They make good door stops too, lol. You can also use clinch nails where you are using those little clips. Works great. I learned that from a young great saddle maker out in Texas. See you can teach an old dog new tricks, lol. Just space the clinch nails about 1" apart just through your stitch line & stich slowly & pull the nails as you get to them. Works great. Sorry wasn't trying to hijack your video just giving out some helpful hints.
You laugh about junior high, but my company recommends double strap backpacks for transporting our laptops. The ergo implications reduces a lot of back stress. Great video.
Awsome Job! My wife has been asking me to make a bag like this for a few years. Have been worried it would be to hard for me to do. I think I may give it a go. Any idea when this template would be available?
I never thought I'd be describing leather this way, but that bag is some serious creamy goodness. Now I just have to keep telling myself not everything needs a well-worn patina.
If you are still having difficulties sewing over multiple layered seams, look into the "hump jumper". I have seen sewists use it when sewing heavy fabric, like denim. I've also seen people make their own. I've never used one, though.
Hi Mitchel, I was wondering if you don’t mind sharing the backpack pattern or at least if you can let me know where I can purchase it. I would truly appreciate it Maribel.
Good day Boss. Wondering what that imprint machine under the workbench with any hot foil machine is about. I have been searching for something that leaves a deeper Impression that the Tandy foil machine. Something that's more heavy-duty feeling. Appreciate you either way.
I'm looking to make something similar to this. How big was the side of leather? I know you worked around the imperfections, but how much do you think I'd need for a similar size bag? Love the videos thank you for posting!
Cool video, I watch regularly. I really like your workplace. Perfect. It’s a pity, of course, that more than half of what you are talking about I don’t understand ((. I read the comments, and this sometimes gives a more complete picture of what is happening. Google translator helps with this. I wish you good luck and happiness.
Looks great! One of my peeves about leather backpack is unpadded straps that are flimsy or uncomfortable. Can i find out exactly what material you used as padding?
Im just getting into doing belts and wallets. Im to the point where i need to invest in a sewing machine. I would like to get into doing bags as well. Would you suggest a flat or cylinder type sewing machine for a starter.
Need to get a sewing book on clothing to learn about trimming curves. What you would have found is how to relieve the bunching are V-shaped notches that are needed to remove the bunching. Also, the folding technique on squares corners, tabbing on Inside and notching on outside curves. I like backpacks but I need a strong handle on the top simple hand pickup and straps long enough to crossbody carry when in a hurry. You might think about making zippers more secure or hidden to reduce theft. Backpacks are something you want to travel the world with and feel safe.

Are you more of a Backpack person or a shoulder bag person?
Stock & Barrel Co backpack!!! 🎒👍🏻
Backpack currently... but only because I'm not finished my first leather shoulder bag!
Backpack

Backpack gal! Someday I hope to invest in a beautiful leather one!
I am very new to leather working.. and I learn so much and enjoy your videos and work..thanks.
Bro your videos inspire me so much because of you I started leather craft . And your videos are getting better each time. This video really stood out idk what it was but the way it was out together was so good !
This is exactly what I needed. I had started to make my own backpack pattern and I got a lot of good ideas for the shoulder straps from this! Thanks!
I know this is a yr old but this is helping me a lot in my camera bag . Can’t quite use the insert . I carry about 5 lenses including a 600mm telephoto lens. It’s a beast .
Incredible looking bag man!
I was about to quit on leather work until I found this channel. Thanks so much for restarting that maker fire in me man!
Awesome video 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽. Love all those little tips and tricks and love the hustle.

Great video Parker. Well done
Really love your VIDEOS. Keep them coming! They are so informative.
LOL the beginning of this video cracked me up. I like that you show your "lessons" for the rest of us as well. Always learning!
Thank you for taking me on this adventure in crafting!
Amazing worksmanship
One of the best videos you’ve made!
Juan José Rodarte man thanks so much!
Great bag you made there. Great craftsmanship.

Awesome work! I love the way that you share with us such a variety of great information about leatherwork.
You laugh about junior high, but my company recommends double strap backpacks for transporting our laptops. The ergo implications reduces a lot of back stress. Great video.
awesome work as usual, keep up the good work!!!!!
Great video, Thanks for doing them.
Thanks so much Mike!
You’re so talented! Beautiful!

Loved this video thanks for making it
Awesome love this video.
Beautiful! I want one!
great video I'm just starting with leather after watching your previous videos. would love more videos and patterns for bags made with leather please.
nice leather work, and I love lining up pack panels, ha, but now I'm on about that insert, dang
Bone folder for rolling the edge works pretty good. Basting tape makes zippers a breeze to install...no glue needed, and much, much faster.
Any update on when we could get this pattern🙏🏼🙏🏼 love the videos
Awesome video man! I just found your channel and love it. Thank you for mentioning everything you use, I'm drooling over that TechSew machine.
Hi Parker! Are you closer to getting the pattern for this backpack for sale?
Is this pattern available by any chance?
Awsome Job!
My wife has been asking me to make a bag like this for a few years.
Have been worried it would be to hard for me to do.
I think I may give it a go.
Any idea when this template would be available?
Aww id love to make a bag for my significant other

Nice job.....want to learn how to make the one with lining

Super cool!
Need this.
I never thought I'd be describing leather this way, but that bag is some serious creamy goodness. Now I just have to keep telling myself not everything needs a well-worn patina.
I’m a shoulder bag person and new to leather working. I would like to make a backpack too
Hi, where can I buy PDF for this backpack? Can you give me a link please.
Dope! More backpack designs. Perhaps with flap closure
Perfect...good job...
Wish i had this pattern
Thank you, thanks for the inspiration!
Great video! Thank you!
If you are still having difficulties sewing over multiple layered seams, look into the "hump jumper". I have seen sewists use it when sewing heavy fabric, like denim. I've also seen people make their own. I've never used one, though.
You should add a double zipper, that way it would be much easier to handle. I can wait to see the patina on it, Great backpack!
great work!! how did you learn to make the patterns? any secret?
What clicker press do you use nowe. That Tandy press is no longer available ?
Very beautiful
Amazing I’d love to buy one!
Hi Mitchel, I was wondering if you don’t mind sharing the backpack pattern or at least if you can let me know where I can purchase it. I would truly appreciate it Maribel.
Really excellent
You’re talented. What’s an awesome piece!
At long laaaaaasssttt! Welcome back parker haha
Looks great
Now that’s a backpack
Wonder what it looks like now. Essex is a patina monster
Good day Boss. Wondering what that imprint machine under the workbench with any hot foil machine is about. I have been searching for something that leaves a deeper Impression that the Tandy foil machine. Something that's more heavy-duty feeling. Appreciate you either way.
Please make a black one an option. Awesome work
I would love to buy one
That's bag look so beautiful..What is the actual name for the copper rivet?..where can i get that sir?
what size and model rivets were those????
really nice
How do i get started doing this as a beginner? Ive never used a sewing machine before
God bless you 🇸🇳🇸🇳🇸🇳 teacher
I'm looking to make something similar to this. How big was the side of leather? I know you worked around the imperfections, but how much do you think I'd need for a similar size bag?
Love the videos thank you for posting!
Thanks Nick, When your testing a new pattern I would probably start with a full side (~22-25 sq.ft)
How do you sew gussets on a thicker ounce leather with a machine?
I've loved your Chanel bruuh 👍👌
Hi, I'm a fan of your work, don't you sell that pattern?
How many sides does it take to make something like that
Bravo,BUEN TRABAJO
Where do you get your woven labels ?
Is this pattern for sale? I can’t find it on the website.
Nice...! Can I check if you use regular Xacto blades or something else? Thanks!

how much cost brother
Im just getting into doing belts and wallets. Im to the point where i need to invest in a sewing machine. I would like to get into doing bags as well. Would you suggest a flat or cylinder type sewing machine for a starter.
Will you be creating a template...I'm just starting and I would love to make this
Same, I would love this pattern

Added note I recommend the Edna Brite Bishop sewing techniques and books.
Ive been wantn to design a backpack, but ive been afraid to mess up tha much leather.
Which type of leather is this ?
This is called Horween Natural Essex
@@whitandpark Thanks, I just stared in India. I also need some tools for same.
how much time did you spend on this project?
Do you feel the weird puckers take away from the overall project.
I have the same problems with duffel bags. Thanks
🙏👍❤️
Yeah I definitely prefer to not have that happen. As long as you get the length right it shouldn't happen. But it's tricky;)
Awesome.
I want one
Don't have a bag pattern?
incredible! what thread do you use? and wich size? im having some trouble with this right now. thanks!!
Amazing backpack where is it in the website
Where did you get your die cutters?
That was so nice...How can i get that from you,?
How deep was your skive from the edge? (Im making a duffle bag currently) thanks
What are the dimensions of this?
