Mr. Boyce is first-rate all around. He can accommodate any requirements you have and he makes your bag and gets it to you quickly. There is something about the response of the leather that I really like vis-a-vis other bags I've tried. I highly recommend him.

I've been using Kelleher bags (Niall Kelleher and Daniela Ferretti, proprietors) for about a year now. The finish on the bags is outstanding and the handstitched bags are airtight without seasoning. They can make to any pattern you like, as well, and they're great to deal with.

I have used Jackie Boyce bags in the past also and found them to be quite good also.
