Nature is the best inspiration. I started thinking about designing totes when I couldn't find a simple, unadorned, logo-free bag to carry around my notes, samples, and other miscellany. But what really got me inspired was the discovery of baby hair calf. These skins are completely natural and one-of-a-kind. No dyes. No fake coloring. And no two are alike. The fine hairs are incredibly tiny and soft. So soft it leaves people speechless. The Thurston Tote is the bag that makes people stop you on the street to ask where you got it (that's even before they feel it!). And that's exactly what happens nearly every day when I'm at Urth Caffé waiting in line for my daily Spanish Latte fix. Hand-crafted by local artisans in L.A. and lined in ultra-premium Italian red suede, the Thurston Tote is available in both natural and spotted Baby Hair Calf, Anaconda, and Napa leather.
