  • The last time I reviewed a Cravar product it sold out quickly after the video was released, and its easy to see why. A bag made of full-grain vegetable-tanned leather with beautiful edge finishing, solid brass hardware, all for under $400 isn't easy to find. I'm happy to bring you another model from Cravar which follows the same formula as the excellent FC but in a more traditional briefcase style. If you're looking for the point where price meets quality, you've found it.

    This Channel has really opened me up to trying things I was hesitant to try. Especially footwear. Ever since my time in the Marines, I've always stuck to hiking boots. Now my Heritage work chukkas are ky second favorite boot. Now I have good bags to add to my collection. My girlfriend says thanks for all your work.

      Well first of all, thank you for your service! Secondly I’m really glad you’ve ventured out of your comfort zone and tried some of these new things. I try to cover the best quality stuff I can, especially at a good price. That way it’s worth your hard earned money and you’ll have it for a long time.

    I went to indonesia last year and saw the magnitude of their leather industry. There were plenty of pretty good leather goods with fraction of the price of what other countries i visited offered. Indonesia leathers are very underrated. I source some of my leather materials direct from there. Mostly from Java.

    • @CarlMurawski
      @CarlMurawski  5 років тому +2

      Wow, that’s a tough one. The Cravar are more rugged and less “refined” than the Satchel and Page. The Satchel and Page have shiny leather and zippers and that can be a turn off for some. Really it’s BMW and Mercedes though, they’re both excellent

      @@CarlMurawski I'd be curious what you think of United By Blue. They more do outdoor gear but I got the bag because I like their environmental mission and they're local to Philly so I had to support that too. It's definitely similar looking to filson, organic wax cotton and veg tanned leather.

    Carl, would you chose the Alpha 15 over the Nut Sac Jones 13?

    • @CarlMurawski
      @CarlMurawski  3 роки тому

      I have both actually, and they're very similar. The Jones 13 is made with leather that scratches and ages MUCH quicker. If you're a patina fan then thats the bag for you, but it's a little smaller than I'd have wanted. It wont fit my laptop, so just keep that in mind.
