E|G Forge

Website: http://www.egforge.com/

EG Forge is located on the upper level of Art Central.

When I design a bag I always like to think that it will be taken on adventures like glacier crossings, safaris, and expeditions through the rainforest. Even though in all likelihood they will never be taken to places like these I still design every bag so that it could. I design every bag to be as durable and functional as possible, and I don't consider the form and style of a bag very much when I design it. I think that the style and form of a bag will come naturally if it's designed well. This is what sets EG Forge bags apart, I don't put fake buckles on a bag for style, I don't use plastic in any of my bags, and I add things like finger loops for snaps so you don't crush whatever is inside the pocket.

Apart from the actual design of the bag I use materials that are durable and strong, yet classic and stylish. I use waxed canvas which is waterproof yet supple, and develops an amazing patina over time, oil tanned leather which is soft and flexible to the touch and waterproof as well, and I use antiqued brass hardware that will never rust, chip, or loose its finish.

I really design every bag to be as sturdy and durable as possible, so it will never fail when you need it.
