TITO Brown Vintage British-Style Small Backpack/Shoulder Bag

**Design** ‘Beara Beara’ creates bags for those who we have not yet met. But we sit and imagine who you may be. What secrets you have, what makes you smile, what makes you sigh. We sit at our messy desks and rummage through materials and shapes and patterns. We play. We play with our ideas. What will make your life a little brighter? We ignore the chaos in the street, the technology, the worries of life. We create something new. Every month we go home with our wages to give to our landlords and government and banks but still feel quite content. We like making strangers smile. **Supply** In our minds we are Julio and Maria and Cesar and Natalia who also sit at their desks in Bolivia and twist and shape pieces of leather into something that has never been seen before. Our connection with our suppliers is one of the most special aspects about Beara Beara. A collaboration, which exists on mutual admiration, respect, understanding and general positivity. Improve people’s lives through trade and not aid, is one of the principles on which the business is built, yet none of us imagined it would become so much fun. **Quality** As a young business we have been quite hideous to work with; a spoilt child wanting everything and wanting it right now. Over demanding in production schedules, uncompromising in material quality, relentless in the pursuit of our exact designs, pedantic in finding faults. Hats off to our suppliers for putting up with us in our infancy but now that we are a tad more mature we have been justified by the fact that our customers appreciate our continued pursuit of quality and perfection. Naturally dyed hand-picked hides. One-of-a-kind cloths displaying history in a modern style. Soft linings and strong hardware. Our aim is always to create a quality product that will reward our customer’s trust in us. **Overview 總覽** The Tito vintage British-style small backpack/shoulder bag is handcrafted from sturdy, durable cowhide leather.

All Beara Beara bags are crafted from unprocessed cowhide, which features natural variations in texture and depth, a hallmark of handmade leather goods. __Does the leather soften with use?__ Yes, after a few weeks of use, the leather will gradually soften and develop a richer character. However, to maintain the bag's shape and ensure its longevity, we recommend not overloading it with excessively heavy items. __Is the leather waterproof?__ Natural leather is not waterproof. However, both leather and suede can be protected with a waterproofing spray. As the spray may affect the leather's sheen, please use it sparingly. __Will the bag be damaged if it gets wet?__ Exposure to small amounts of moisture will not damage the leather. If the bag accidentally gets slightly wet, simply hang it up to air dry naturally. __Will the suede fade?__ Under normal use, it will not fade, especially when protected with a waterproofing spray. However, severe water saturation can alter the color of the suede. __Are the materials used organic?__ Yes, we use natural wool and natural leather sourced from Bolivia. __Is Beara Beara part of the Fair Trade organization?__ Since our establishment in 2012, our core philosophy and mission have been to assist residents of developing countries by creating employment opportunities and providing economic support to improve their living standards. We have chosen not to sign with a Fair Trade organization as we believe such formal recognition is unnecessary, given that our brand has consistently embodied these principles.
