## Materials & Craftsmanship

Bennett Winch uses a curated set of materials selected for longevity and character:

- **Full-grain leather**: Ages with the owner, developing a natural patina over time. Sourced for quality and consistency.
- **Canvas**: 24oz British dyed, waterproof cotton canvas. Robust and softens with use, well suited to travel.
- **Italian suede**: Moss-backed for waterproofing without compromising the soft texture of suede.
- **Solid brass hardware**: Resists tarnishing and adds weight and permanence to zips and clasps.

All bags are cut and stitched by hand in England.
