The key to traveling right:
Traveling light.
How to make that Seussian ideal a reality: the Joshua Tree by Leather Cottage LA, a handsome new bag that has just enough space to stow a weekend’s worth of gear.
Built right here in L.A., the Joshua Tree is a tote/doctor bag hybrid with various interior pockets that’ll keep cords and everyday carries from mingling with your garments.
The waxed canvas isn’t excessively tacky, and the leather handles and straps keep it looking sharp and shipshape.
Two other items we dig: the PCH Overnighter (a smaller version of the JT bag) and the Indio Pouch (good for toiletries). Both are sturdily made and ideal for short trips.
Founded by a husband-wife duo that travel rugged and often and needed some carrying gear to match, Leather Cottage launches online today and hits local stores soon.
To have one in hand today, use Schlep & Fetch, a new app-based messenger service that’ll pick it up for you. Their app lets you track the shipment and stay in touch with your driver.
That’s how we got ours.
Now get yours and get out there.
Nota bene: Leather Cottage is offering our readers free shipping on purchases made by 6/19. Just use code ‘InsideHook2015’ at checkout.
