At Beargrass Leather, sometimes it feels like we are running out of names.  Because each bag is a one-of-a-kind original, we go through a lot of names.  It does help when we can keep one style, think Sadie, and apply variations to that style.  We like to come up with Montana names for our products.  After all, our motto is "inspired by Montana, crafted by hand."
