Voted 'BEST HANDBAGS' by Down East Magazine!
There is inherent beauty in something made one at a time and at Rough & Tumble there is a commitment to the effort that this entails. Each bag is designed, cut, made, and finished here, at Rough & Tumble in Maine.
For years each bag was made solely by Natasha, from start to finish, in her home studio. Today, bags are expertly stitched by a team of primarily professional quilters under the direction of Natasha Durham, and production coordinator Amanda Trundy.
This signature mix of smart utility, archival form, and rugged luxury materials, marks a vision of authentic, resolved, and trend free design.
Rough & Tumble continually sources special leathers, textiles and custom fittings, ensuring a fast changing palette of reinvented, unique and forward looks.
In the summer of 2013 we opened our Studio Store in Norway, ME followed by our Flagship Store in Portland, ME in 2015.
Our Studio Store can be found at 414 Main St. in Norway, ME and
our Flagship Store at 127 Middle St. Portland, ME
Notes from the designer......
"Truly, if the leather is not luxurious, it matters not the slightest what the bag looks like in a photo."

msjoDyleigh on Jul 16, 2017
lovely bag, great quality. i'm very happy with this purchase! i wish there was a small pocket to slip in my drivers license, credit card and some cash.
Katharine on Jul 15, 2017
Great bag. This thing is huge (XL size) but that's what I needed as an everyday carryall/diaper bag. Plenty of pockets, very attractive, and easy to carry in all 3 positions (shoulder, crossbody, and backpack) even when fully loaded. It can get a little heavy, but thats to be expected when cramming a bunch of stuff in your bag. Very pleased!

These collections, emphasize an understated luxury. They are a statement of visual balance, clean architecture and of course, what we are known for, high function.

KIND WORDS FROM AUSTRALIA....
Firstly, my bag looks exactly as it does in the pic.
Secondly, my bag arrived in Australia (!) way earlier than predicted, so in perfect time to pack for my forthcoming holiday.
Thirdly, the leather is great quality and the craftsmanship is clearly apparent in every little detail. I am so happy to have got exactly what I wanted - Thank you so much for listening to all of my needs and realising the final product exactly as I had hoped.
Kind Regards from Melbourne
CUTEST NOTE EVER....
'I love my new bag! I raved about it so much that somebody made me a birthday cake that looked like the bag.'
