TLC for new Filson 257.

1. Conditioned the bridle leather with Saphir Reno

2. Spray multiple coats of Tarrago Waterproofing Spray

Hi PetiaC,

Just want to check if you're using Tarrago universal protector, nano protector or ? Have a navy tweed original briefcase that I want to waterproof as well.

Also, may i know how has the waterproofing protection for your bag been so far? Does it mar the cotton surface?

Thanks!

I just finished the universal protector going to restock with the nano protector.

Don't count on the spray or waterproofing as it only lasts a few months at most need to respray. It is sprayed on new fabric as stain prevention.

Doesn't leave any signs or residue except a strong smell at the first few days.

Thanks for the heads up. I'll hold on for Nano Protector then.

Happy CNY folks

If anyone has a Mission Workshop Rambler do let me know, interested in getting one.

Got one rambler at the bag creature the other day before CNY.

Anyone knows where I can find a cheaper alternative to this Crumpler bag?

QUARFIE - Shoulder Bag | Crumpler

It is like a small-ish messenger bag but with enough width for me to dump a camera bag insert in, and also a small tablet like iPad mini.

They don't have a price list on mission workshop bags lei. Too expensive to put?

i got mine for around 360 plus.. I would have to say price is competitive cause there's only 2 other dealers besides bag creature that carries mission workshop bags.. I would say its cheaper than getting online on their webpage if you are to include shipping.

anyone bought from www.myfeb29.com before?

am thinking of getting a leather bag from this place, which costs around 200$.

however their synthetic leather bags' design look nicer!

or anyone has any other recommendation for affordable leather bag?
