The Mailman
The new IPad bag design is inspired by the iconic 40’s French mailman bag, it has a beautiful rustic look and it represents times where leather goods where very functional and designed rather basically, that is a timeless style which I personally love and appreciate.
About the design
Size: 27.5 x 20cm - made to hold a 10” IPad though it will fit other 10” computers as well.
The Mailman is a one piece body design which is rather easy to make. For the straps you will need a couple of 1cm standard buckles and 2 rivets sized 0.6 or 0.8.
The build time is approximately 3 hours and it’s great for beginners as for experienced crafters. I recommend using medium tempered leather for the body, thickness can vary between 1.2 to 2.0mm, for the straps use thick and stiff leather so they’ll hold shape.
For stitching I recommend using 3.25 irons with 0.5 waxed linen thread to complete the original look.
