5 out of 5 starsI have been searching for a new bag for over 2 years to replace my previous favourite. This bag has done just that! It's a practical size, with various pockets, a zippered top, and has a simple clean look to it. The materials used are exceptional quality, with a great look and feel. The construction and stitching is expertly executed, it's clear the bag has been made mindfully by a true craftsman.
Added to this, Justin's customer service was great! My bag shipped quickly, and the personal thank you over Etsy was appreciated. I am certain this bag will be my go to for years to come and I would certainly purchase another in a heartbeat! -

5 out of 5 starsThis bag is exactly the piece that I was looking for, the perfect size and dimensions for everyday use. It's extremely well-made and beautifully stylish, while versatile enough to pair with just about any outfit.
In addition to the quality of the product itself, I was thoroughly impressed by Justin's level of service. The item was dispatched immediately and received within a couple of days, and Justin not only included a letter of thanks in the package, but reached out personally via electronic message to express his gratitude and make sure I had access to the tracking information. An absolutely wonderful experience all around. -

5 out of 5 starsLOVE LOVE LOVE!! This crossbody is perfect in every way. I can hold all my essentials in it and it’s convenient to carry everyday. The quality and workmanship are top notch! I wish the strap was a bit longer but that’s a personal preference. I will definitely be purchasing other items from Justin.

5 out of 5 starsI was very excited to get this tool roll for my husband for Christmas. Thank you for the quick delivery! He absolutely loves it and truly appreciates it’s fine craftsmanship. So beautiful and will last forever to house his chisel tools.

5 out of 5 starsVery well made. Just the perfect size for a bag that I can’t overfill, but big enough to fit everything I need handy, and my laptop for days I am in the office.

About JustinStarrStudio
OWNER/DESIGNER/CRAFTER
For me, this journey has always been about learning new skills. It all started by learning how to build furniture without the use of power tools, using traditional tools and techniques. I gradually found my way into leatherwork and started developing the skills to produce a variety of leather goods from handbags to wallets. I honed my skills through practice, not formal education. I learned by doing, trying, and more often than not figuring out 100 ways how NOT to do that thing. Some call this an autodidact, a self-learner.
Before 2016, I had spent nearly a decade in the automotive insurance industry, writing Terms & Conditions for extended car warranties. It was during my time in the auto industry that I recognized I needed my life to revolve around creating something tangible. The opportunity presented itself to help open The Unplugged Woodshop, Canada's first-hand tool only woodworking school. We focused on teaching people to build fine-furniture without the use of power tools, learn to slow down in this fast-paced society and enjoy the process. It was an opportunity of a lifetime and something I knew I could not miss. Seeing student after student leave with a level of accomplishment was incredible. It made me realize that in just three short years, I had come to a point where I could teach people this fantastic craft. But something was missing, the very thing that I was teaching people to do I wasn't doing much of, creating.
I am now an independent designer and artisan, producing a range of handbags and wallets from leather and canvas. My handbag patterns are original and based on a simple classic design with attention toward solid construction. I prefer natural materials like 100% cotton canvas and vegetable-tanned leathers. My wallets are made from a combination of American and Italian leathers. I hope my products bring as much joy to the people that purchase them as they did for me creating them.
