- I've been wanting to make a leather backpack for a while now, and I happened to have a beautiful hide of Natural Essex by Horween sitting in my shop and I knew this would be the perfect project for it. You can pick up the tools/supplies and leather that I used in this project down below.

Are you more of a Backpack person or a shoulder bag person?
Stock & Barrel Co backpack!!! 🎒👍🏻
Backpack currently... but only because I'm not finished my first leather shoulder bag!
Backpack
I carry a military style backpack to work daily , keep my lunch and anything else I may need in it. Would be awesome to have a leather main bag, with molle II attachments!
Backpack gal! Someday I hope to invest in a beautiful leather one!
This is exactly what I needed. I had started to make my own backpack pattern and I got a lot of good ideas for the shoulder straps from this! Thanks!
Thank you for taking me on this adventure in crafting!
Awesome work! I love the way that you share with us such a variety of great information about leatherwork.
I am very new to leather working.. and I learn so much and enjoy your videos and work..thanks.
Bro your videos inspire me so much because of you I started leather craft . And your videos are getting better each time. This video really stood out idk what it was but the way it was out together was so good !
LOL the beginning of this video cracked me up. I like that you show your "lessons" for the rest of us as well. Always learning!
You’re so talented! Beautiful!
Awesome video 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽. Love all those little tips and tricks and love the hustle.
Really love your VIDEOS. Keep them coming! They are so informative.
I know this is a yr old but this is helping me a lot in my camera bag . Can’t quite use the insert . I carry about 5 lenses including a 600mm telephoto lens. It’s a beast .
I was about to quit on leather work until I found this channel. Thanks so much for restarting that maker fire in me man!
Beautiful! I want one!
Amazing worksmanship
I've been loving the EcoWeld, will have to try it in a squeeze bottle, awesome tip
Loved this video thanks for making it
Thank you, thanks for the inspiration!
awesome work as usual, keep up the good work!!!!!
One of the best videos you’ve made!
Juan José Rodarte man thanks so much!
Great video Parker. Well done
Great video, Thanks for doing them.
Thanks so much Mike!
Awesome love this video.
Im in love with this bag 😭😂😭😍🤤
😍 very nice bag, thank u
Nice job man, thanks for sharing !
Amazing I’d love to buy one!
You laugh about junior high, but my company recommends double strap backpacks for transporting our laptops. The ergo implications reduces a lot of back stress. Great video.
great video I'm just starting with leather after watching your previous videos. would love more videos and patterns for bags made with leather please.
Bro, that is a dead sexy camera back. I am going to have to get me one for sure. I do leather work but not as big of projects as that camera pack. Plus I can tell my Peeps I got it from Stock & Barrel Co. Nice leather work and great vid. By the way thanks to your Vlog with DLS I found and bought some really nice leather and supplies. DLS is my new place to go for my leather supplies, Thanks.
Perfect...good job...
wow that's so dope! I love your work and I'm subscribed . please make more 👊👍
Awesome video man! I just found your channel and love it. Thank you for mentioning everything you use, I'm drooling over that TechSew machine.
Incredible looking bag man!
Super cool!
nice leather work, and I love lining up pack panels, ha, but now I'm on about that insert, dang
I never thought I'd be describing leather this way, but that bag is some serious creamy goodness. Now I just have to keep telling myself not everything needs a well-worn patina.
Great video! Thank you!
At long laaaaaasssttt! Welcome back parker haha
Need this.
Great Work You do very nice work. I love watching you all get it done haha. Also I big hello From Pennsylvania. I'm a new subscriber.
Binder clips are the best!!!!
haha I use them A LOT
Really excellent
Looks great
Great bag you made there. Great craftsmanship.
Howdy there, I saw you were using a small anvil for a weight to hold your stuff down. I took some of my chap scraps (oil tan leather) & cut out a little 8" x 4" piece of leather. Fold it over into a 4" x 4" size, stitched 2 sides & 3/4 of the open end. I took some real old shotgun shells I had, cut them open & poured the shot inside for the weight until full. Then stitched the last 1/4 of the open end together. I have made others for people & used BB's to fill the pouch. Easier to use the BB's since they come in bulk. The soft chap leather doesn't scratch or indent any leather. They make good door stops too, lol.
You can also use clinch nails where you are using those little clips. Works great. I learned that from a young great saddle maker out in Texas. See you can teach an old dog new tricks, lol. Just space the clinch nails about 1" apart just through your stitch line & stich slowly & pull the nails as you get to them. Works great. Sorry wasn't trying to hijack your video just giving out some helpful hints.
Bone folder for rolling the edge works pretty good. Basting tape makes zippers a breeze to install...no glue needed, and much, much faster.
Nice work 👌.
I love ur Channel man ur presentation is just so Naiiiiieeeeeeeeeccccccccceeeeeee
Now that’s a backpack
Very beautiful
Awesome.
I've loved your Chanel bruuh 👍👌
really nice
Dope! More backpack designs. Perhaps with flap closure
I’m a shoulder bag person and new to leather working. I would like to make a backpack too
Camera bag I don't think so more like 2 beers a slot.you do awesome work.love your channel
haha that was the real intent;)
Bravo,BUEN TRABAJO
You should add a double zipper, that way it would be much easier to handle. I can wait to see the patina on it, Great backpack!
nice job man
God bless you 🇸🇳🇸🇳🇸🇳 teacher
Brother Great Video..
If you are still having difficulties sewing over multiple layered seams, look into the "hump jumper". I have seen sewists use it when sewing heavy fabric, like denim. I've also seen people make their own. I've never used one, though.
Cool video, I watch regularly. I really like your workplace. Perfect. It’s a pity, of course, that more than half of what you are talking about I don’t understand ((. I read the comments, and this sometimes gives a more complete picture of what is happening. Google translator helps with this. I wish you good luck and happiness.
Wonder what it looks like now. Essex is a patina monster
I want one
Awsome Job!
My wife has been asking me to make a bag like this for a few years.
Have been worried it would be to hard for me to do.
I think I may give it a go.
Any idea when this template would be available?
Aww id love to make a bag for my significant other
You’re talented. What’s an awesome piece!
Looks great! One of my peeves about leather backpack is unpadded straps that are flimsy or uncomfortable. Can i find out exactly what material you used as padding?
Nicely done man! Not brave enough to try this yet, but the video is helpful.
incredible! what thread do you use? and wich size? im having some trouble with this right now. thanks!!
One day I’ll make my own or buy from you.
Nice job.....want to learn how to make the one with lining
Please make a black one an option. Awesome work
I would love to buy one
Hi Parker! Are you closer to getting the pattern for this backpack for sale?
great work!! how did you learn to make the patterns? any secret?
It’s a shame you never released a finished product for that camera insert you used in this backpack video. I also have to say I miss the days of watching S&B project videos.
Nice...! Can I check if you use regular Xacto blades or something else? Thanks!
beautiful piece! How much leather is needed for such a backpack (in meters/feet square)?
Any update on when we could get this pattern🙏🏼🙏🏼 love the videos
Good day Boss. Wondering what that imprint machine under the workbench with any hot foil machine is about. I have been searching for something that leaves a deeper Impression that the Tandy foil machine. Something that's more heavy-duty feeling. Appreciate you either way.
Need to get a sewing book on clothing to learn about trimming curves. What you would have found is how to relieve the bunching are V-shaped notches that are needed to remove the bunching. Also, the folding technique on squares corners, tabbing on Inside and notching on outside curves. I like backpacks but I need a strong handle on the top simple hand pickup and straps long enough to crossbody carry when in a hurry. You might think about making zippers more secure or hidden to reduce theft. Backpacks are something you want to travel the world with and feel safe.
Added note I recommend the Edna Brite Bishop sewing techniques and books.
Im just getting into doing belts and wallets. Im to the point where i need to invest in a sewing machine. I would like to get into doing bags as well. Would you suggest a flat or cylinder type sewing machine for a starter.
That's bag look so beautiful..What is the actual name for the copper rivet?..where can i get that sir?
Wish i had this pattern
I'm a back pack person. I use them when I'm out on the motorcycle and there might be a chance i have to buy something to bring home.
nice
Hi, where can I buy PDF for this backpack? Can you give me a link please.
🤯🤯🤯🤯
I'm looking to make something similar to this. How big was the side of leather? I know you worked around the imperfections, but how much do you think I'd need for a similar size bag?
Love the videos thank you for posting!
Thanks Nick, When your testing a new pattern I would probably start with a full side (~22-25 sq.ft)
Hi Mitchel, I was wondering if you don’t mind sharing the backpack pattern or at least if you can let me know where I can purchase it. I would truly appreciate it Maribel.
hello I am a French student and I would like to know if it is possible and if so at what price for a leather backpack 50 liter and a large kit with three compartments thank you in advance and as usual nice video (for this summer) 😄
i want this pattron
How do you sew gussets on a thicker ounce leather with a machine?
Amazing backpack where is it in the website
Ive been wantn to design a backpack, but ive been afraid to mess up tha much leather.
That was so nice...How can i get that from you,?
What clicker press do you use nowe. That Tandy press is no longer available ?
Do you feel the weird puckers take away from the overall project.
I have the same problems with duffel bags. Thanks
🙏👍❤️
Yeah I definitely prefer to not have that happen. As long as you get the length right it shouldn't happen. But it's tricky;)
How deep was your skive from the edge? (Im making a duffle bag currently) thanks
How do i get started doing this as a beginner? Ive never used a sewing machine before
Will you be creating a template...I'm just starting and I would love to make this
Same, I would love this pattern
