There is something refreshing about the simple life, and I'm not referring to heiresses sleeping in a pink Airstream. Instead, I'm thinking more along the lines of current menswear trends. The demand for selvedge denim and a resurgence of classic rugged brands like Pendleton and Woolrich indicate that, these days, dudes want well-made gear that will defy both trends and time.
The idea of quality goods is not a new one for Billykirk design duo and brothers Chris and Kirk Bray. Their line offers leather goods designed with much practicality and minimal extras. Kirk explains their design intent it to "keep the designs simple and let the organic qualities of the leather speak for it self." The Bray brothers' decision to have many of their satchels, belts and cuffs made by Amish leather workers reinforces their commitment to beauty, quality and simplicity.
