Having grown up in Maine on both a horse farm and later, on the coast, I witnessed first-hand the need for durable and multi-purpose carry-alls. On the farm, canvas or cotton bags were used for anything from carrying vegetables from the garden to hauling harnesses and tackle from the barn; on the coast, it was fishing gear one day, clean dry clothes and camping gear the next. The bag had to be versatile and built to last. If it tore or ripped, it was a quick fix and back to work! Getting a few smudges and stains? It just adds character!
Horse & Anchor seeks to capture that spirit.
We seek out vintage fabrics and hardware on our travels from Maine to California and create simple, durable and slightly raw totes and carry-alls for all of your carrying needs.
The materials are hand picked and in limited quantities. At our shop in Glendale California, we wash and if need be, repair the material before constructing the bag, leaving any printing, interesting marks and fixes that the fabric may have collected over the years. This is why some bags may be of similar styles but the little details insure that every one is different.
Our materials and hardware are found at swap meets, flea markets, estate sales, barn and yard sales, and not to forget, friends! All our supplies are recycled or upcycled and are given new life to make our bags.
Each bag arrives at your doorstep empty; fill it with your own history!
