{"product_id":"the-paradox-tote-black-tumbled-cowhide","title":"The Paradox Tote - Black Tumbled Cowhide","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Paradox Tote is all about juxtaposition, about celebrating life’s wonderful little paradoxes. Rustic yet refined, understated but outspoken, unique yet familiar, daring but grounded. The strange paradox that life’s clearest, most comforting lessons are learned at its lowest points. That the greatest joys in life lead to its greatest sorrows. For every sunrise, a sunset. For every birth, a death. For every love, a loss. These are the lessons that echoed in my mind as I designed this bag. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMade from a classic black vegetable tanned cowhide that’s been tumbled to give it a broken-in, lived-in look and feel. The tumbled veg tan gives the bag a pebbled texture, and a comfortable slouchy silhouette that’s reminiscent of your favorite pair of jeans.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eMulti-use Strap Billets with Brass D-Rings\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor this version of the Paradox, we added a set of tucked strap billets with solid brass D-rings. The billets allow this bag to be carried with a removable shoulder strap, use a carabiner to clip on a set of keys, or to secure the opening and protect your valuables when wandering. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThe Devil in the details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe handles are made from thick, American oak-tanned cowhide that are rich with character, while being durable enough to carry the weight of the world without complaint—just like you. We intentionally chose straps with heavy natural scars and character lines to match the broken-in look and feel of the bag. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDetails like solid copper rivets, solid brass D-rings, hand-stitched turned edges, and double stitched seams ensure that the Paradox Tote will endure, even when the moment doesn’t. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlack Tumbled Vegetable Tanned Cowhide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAmerican oak-tanned handles with 11-inch strap drop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTucked strap billets with solid brass D-rings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInterior flap pocket\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDeep exterior slip pocket\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHand-set solid copper rivets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHand-stitched turned edges\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDouble-stitched seams\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Swift Leatherworks","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42549191573579,"sku":null,"price":325.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0672\/4626\/0299\/files\/IMG_3970.webp?v=1780546309","url":"https:\/\/swiftleatherworks.com\/products\/the-paradox-tote-black-tumbled-cowhide","provider":"Swift Leatherworks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
