Our Bags
the Winterfold story
If you say it out loud
In 2011 I was sitting around a table with people introducing themselves, saying why they were here, what they do, etc. Eventually, it was my turn. I hate this kind of thing. “Hi, I’m Anthony,” I nervously started, “I’m a graphic designer and I want to launch a bag brand.”

Why did I choose a local manufacturer? It was a simple decision for me. I have developed products for manufacture abroad in the past and did not enjoy the process. I hate the delays and the disconnect. Working with a company just down the road isn’t just about my convenience; although being able to pop in for a brew and chat has absolutely allowed me to create a better product. I’ve seen the manufacturing process; seen the care put into every stitch; seen the quality of the product that results; spoken to the people making them. I can design and manufacture in small, sustainable batches, adding new designs when it feels right to do so. Finally, it’s important to me to keep jobs in the local economy and minimise transport miles.
Lifetime guarantee, if it breaks we will fix it. Treated well, this bag should last a lifetime and we stand by that.
