SANTORINI Mulebelt is designed deliberately simple. It is a bag for leisure and work and has a shoulder strap out of a vintage Swiss Army Mulebelt.
It is sewn from very robust and heavy vintage Swiss Army tent fabric with partly strong and beautiful patina.It is said that these tents were taken over by the Swiss Army from the Americans after the Second World War and than, they were dyed black, and reused as sanitary and kitchen tents. Some tents are newer than others and therefor have lesser patina.
Of course, the sheets are cleaned before processing clean as the following video shows.
The inner pocket, in which valuables can be stowed (approx. 20 x 15 cm) is closable with a very robust RIRI metal zipper of Swiss Army stocks.
A practical key chain made of a black safety belt (approx. 50 cm) with a stainless steel carabiner, which was taken from the gas mask bag of the Swiss Army, completes the interior of the bag.
The handgrips leather straps come from Czech military stocks and are riveted to the canvas. In some bags, the handles are made of new vegetable tanned leather.
As a shoulder strap, we use Swiss Army assault vintage mule belts.
For the bordering we used old bicycle hoses which of course are washed beforehand.
Please read the product description carefully and look at all pictures before you buy the bag. The SANTORINI bags partly have a strong patina and some have patches.
That's exactly what we love! It makes the bag as unique as its owner!
