Wallets/Coin Purses


These little babies are awesome. They have a clear vinyl ID window that will hold about 5 cards and another pocket on the reverse side for more cards or money. The middle is a velcro secured pouch for coins or cash and has a little leash with a key ring for your house key or bike lock key while you're out making for a light load.

Made in the 216 2010 Tool Pouches





Its June again soon and that means Made in the 216 is happening at Room Service in Detroit Shoreway again. This year looks to be bigger and badder and I have been working like a dog getting things together for it. These are some of the tool pouches I've been working on.

John's Crooked River Bag


This bag was months in the making and is maybe the most complicated bag from a design standpoint. The panels were cut and printed from linoleum blocks onto Sailcloth by Alex Nosse. These panels represent the aspects of the Cuyahoga River: agriculture, industry, and recreation.

Dave's Piggly Wiggly Bacon Bag






Prototyping is over and the Big Boy Backpack is ready to hit the streets. Featuring the zippered document pocket, split shoulder strap, side pockets, compression straps, you know, the works, this behemoth deserves to go to the guy who did the testing in Chicago with its father, the camo pack. Dave wanted a pig with bacon crossbones and I'm pretty sure I hit the mark!
