Seagull Bags
I came across these awesome messenger bags last week, unlike most a lot of them feature huge embroidered pictures which I’m, surprisingly, really into. Usually I just like things that are black with an extra smidgen of dark black but I really dig these.
They are based in Ohio and in their own words “Seagull Bags specializes in waterproof, high-quality custom courier bags. What began as one guy in a basement trying to build the perfect bag has grown into a respected but low-profile maker of custom messenger gear. While our bags have gained international acclaim for their durability, smart design and custom embroidery and artwork, our staff is small enough to lend close personal attention to every order; we pride ourselves on working directly with you to build a bag exactly to your specifications.”
There are A LOT of small custom messenger bag companies out there and most of them seem to be doing really good work, but few of them stand out from the rest, yeah they may have a snazzy strap configuration or something but they are all essentially plain messenger bags. The embroidery on the Seagull Bags is something really special, from animals to ships to chicks being facially violated by serpents and beyond, it all looks really skilfully executed and something that I’m sure every owner of these bags is very proud to wear.
Check out their gallery of custom work here, it’s well worth a look. I’ve got a few messenger bag reviews planned for September so if you’re thinking about buying a new bag wait a few weeks because I consider myself quite the expert on everything so my reviews are worth their weight in gold, haha.
