The straps are made by wrapping a piece of rope with leather, sealing it and then sewing it. It is then attached to the rest of the bag, along with ‘The Eye’. Studs at the base of the bag which are also called feet, the zip and lining are attached before the next process takes place.
6. This next process is called saddle stitching. The structure is made out of wood and is called a pony. The bag is put bewtween the clamps and sewn together using two needles.
