Maxim Sharov is a Russian craftsman who makes bags of leather. Here we show how he usually does it.

He especially likes leather that looks old, shabby and vintage. He says it’s “alive”.
Firstly leather should be carefully painted.
Cutting out a pattern of a future bag.
Punching the leather for sewing.
Making straps.
A press is used to fix the straps on the bag
Polishing the edges of the leather
The hardest part – sewing itself
A buckle is getting a beautiful dark tint on the stove
Cutting out the strap for the bag from another leather
Coming to an end
Stamping a name on the bag!
Such bags can serve for many years becoming only better

Hey Moose I would like to see your stuff but your directions are not getting me there!
I am always interested in seeing people doing hand-work, such work has soul in it. Factory worked things lack that soul.
One of the reasons I enjoy English/Russia so much is it gives me a chance to look at other people’s ways of applying original thought to what they doing instead of being drones.

you hit the head on the nail with this comment

It would be a nicer comment if Moose actually was the one to say it. ;p
Very industrial looking. Should last forever.
Good work!
Where can we order them from? I know a lot of bikers who would enjoy having him make saddlebags and handlebar bags.
I think his personal touch makes what he does special.
