USE & CARE

PRODUCTION & DESIGN

This leather all purpose kit with rustic accents is meant to be passed on to future generations.

This sleek looking Utility Cylinder will bring back fond (and not so fond) memories of high school. Given a rustic twist with the fine Full Grain Leather, this piece of kit is ideal for teachers, craftsmen and women, entrepreneurs, executives, in fact it's perfect for any profession. It can even be a stylish home for your toiletries and shaving accessories. 


The flesh side of the soft leather is first stained with natural drab tone and finished with our proprietary beeswax conditioner. Our unique treatment not only helps the bag to retain its shape without the aid synthetic stabilizers, it also eliminates the need for a lining (often the first to tear) offering a natural and durable look.

The heavy-duty zipper is made by Japanese-founded and Brooklyn-based YKK, a zipper and hardware manufacturer widely respected in the worlds of fashion and accessories. The bottom features a heavier, double-leather overlay with double-stitched seams offering long lasting support. Seams are sewn using bonded nylon thread with a burned and melted finish offering no loose ends during your travel.

The leather we use, originating from our well established supplier Compiel, is only Full Grain Leather, and if you don't know what that is, then make sure you're sitting comfortably. There are 4 types of leather, and they are not all the same in quality. You have Full Grain Leather, Top Grain Leather, Genuine Leather and Bonded Leather.

We'll start with Bonded Leather. It's more of an insult to call Bonded Leather a leather. It's basically lots of different parts of leather glued and pressed together to make one piece, it's cheap, not at all durable and it will fall apart within weeks. In short, it's no good and we are completely against it.

Genuine Leather is in third place in the running, and is the layer of the hide that remains after the top is taken off for the better quality leathers. This surface can often be given a makeover with a finish, sometimes a spray paint that can give it the look of a better quality. Not something that happens in our house. Don't settle for this, you can do better.

Top Grain Leather is the second highest grade that you'll find. A leather taken from the top layer of the hide, that is then treated, sanded and refined. It's a good quality leather, but not good enough for Hide and Drink. You can still do better, though, go one more step higher.

Full Grain Leather is the best you can get when it comes to leather, there's no competition here, and Hide and Drink is its biggest fan. Full Grain Leather comes from the top layer of the hide, and has all of the grain, hence its name. It's the best leather than you can buy, and the only leather that we use. You can stop looking now, you've found the cream of the crop.

The tanning process is something that we take pride in. Our rustic leather is created through removing the hair, extracting the moisture, taking out the oils and, of course, the natural preservatives. The leather is placed in a large container filled with new oils, coloring and preservatives, and there it takes on its new color and thus its new personality. The finishing process consists of pressing the leather with heated plates, hung up to dry and sprayed and finished with a sealer. Finally it is pressed once more and then ready for its transformation, in which it is carefully handcrafted by the diligent locals of Pastores, Guatemala, where our workshop is located.

Pencil cylinder box

I used for manicure tools and it works perfectly. Sharp looking and no doubt it will last a long time compared to the cheaply vinyl one I had that was falling apart. Will consider as gifts next year.

Utility Cylinder Used For Writing Supplies

This cylinder bag makes a great bag to hold two custom 2MM mechanical pencils, a 5MM lead holder, a pen, a combination lead sharpener and eraser, a 6 inch brass ruler, another 6 plastic ruler that contains the list of the bible books that helps me find the location of the bible book and there is still plenty of space for more stuff. I love the feel of the leather and that I have all the writing tools that I need in a pouch that is not large. The zipper is also top notch. In summary the pouch is a great size to hold a number of items, the leather is substantial and feels good and the zipper is high quality. This pouch should last a long time.
