Device-specific
We've been committed to making products in the USA since our start in 1998. Back then, off-shore manufacturing was the prevailing trend, and many sewing shops in San Francisco were shuttered.
We wanted hands-on experience with the products we were making — from the idea phase to final production. We wanted to ensure things were done right, make changes on the fly, and iterate on the design as needed.
Our small-batch production fits the types of products we offer — well-designed, custom-fit items you buy for life. You may have to wait a while for us to make it for you, but you know it will be well-made.
With WaterField American-made gear, you get high quality, long-lasting products. All our designs are original, incorporating details you'll appreciate with each use.
We use only premium, full-grain leather for our bags and accents. It comes from the toughest part of the hide with the tightest grain so it's extremely durable.
Full-grain leather looks better and better as it ages, and your WaterField bag will develop a beautiful patina.
Gift Tip #10: Lighten his load
Racking your brain what to get someone who doesn't want anything? Give him the un-expected— the Supreme Suspension Strap. It will make any heavy bag feel lighter, and it won't slip off the shoulder.
Gift Tip #11: Play tourist
In Europe and Asia, the sling is in. Either abroad or at home, do what the locals do and strap on a Shinjuku Sling. It's stylish, convenient, and cool.
Gift Tip #12: Be extravagant
Extra-special people need an extra-special gift. One look at the Bowery Leather Packpack will have you swooning. It stands miles above the typical leather backpack, combining function and style with ease.
