Entermodal, a luxury leather goods producer known for their quality craftsmanship and commitment to sustainable practices is relocating their Portland-based factory to the streets of Soho tomorrow with their first-ever "Pop-Up: Factory" at Odin boutique.
Designer and founder Larry Olmstead is moving his custom tool set, a century old stitching horse, a selection of never before released leather options and linings, along with his team, in order to cut, sew, and stitch their timeless bags and wallets around the clock. The Manhatan pop-up factory is first in a series of three opportunities to see all of the techniques, design, and labor that goes into each Entermodal product, in addition to catching an exclusive glimpse at their spring/summer '09 collection.

Made of walrus skin, the bag is fairly large, durable, and perfectly worn—very au courant for the enduring neo-19th century look of...
Given that she's one of Australia’s most respected and recognized accessories designers, Elke Kramer's announcement last month that she was branching out into a line of leather bags, scarves and belts is a welcome one.

Reuters recently reported that despite the despite the recession, four out of five...
