Charlotte, NC -- (SBWIRE) -- 08/11/2015 -- Specializing in custom leather goods, ColsenKeane has announced its custom handmade line of leather bags and satchels. Each item is one-of-a-kind yet rugged and sturdy. Hand cut from beefy hides, the material is durable and can last for generations. The ColsenKeane product is truly unique in a world of mass production where cookie-cutter products dominate the marketplace and which have a comparatively short lifespan.

Handmade leather bags are crafted on workbenches in a Charlotte, North Carolina studio. The old tractor factory is where expert leather smiths design and build lasting bags under the work lights. Horween Leather and other U.S.-made leather materials are used. Copper rivets, steel buckles, and fasteners are installed by hand.

The company creates custom small and medium sized shoulder bags. Other leather items include duffle, tote, and luggage style bags and backpacks. Bags come in various colors and leathers such as crazy horse, natural tan, tan glazed, scotch grunge, distressed brown, and black are often used. Recently created are canvas and leather combination bags. Occasionally, unusual hides become available and are the subject of limited run products.

Also part of the ColsenKeane product line is the leather satchel. The rugged thin leather tells a story with time, as each scratch and watermark is a reminder of the owner's experiences. Rather than typical travel bags, these are built to last for many years. They can become part of the user's daily routine, or be used as overnight bags or beach bags. Darker leathers are available for customers with a more dressy style.

Leather bags and satchels are designed in sketches. A custom-designed unit starts from rolls of hides. As the team works to personalize each bag and satchel, even examples modeled after current items take on a life of their own. The company can also work with the customer's timeline to offer the most personal experience. It can also monogram up to three initials in any product.
