TRADITIONALLY TOMORROW When Brit-Stitch says it has vintage heritage, it really does.The company’s love affair with leather goes back a long way. It’s a family thing – Peter Jones started it, and his children are bringing it to a new generation of style lovers and vintage coveters. Master craftsman Peter Jones started his journey in 1967 in a tiny workshop as a saddle and harness maker and was always looking for new things to try his hand at. One day, Toby, the local milkman, popped in for a chat and asked Peter to make him a new leather cash bag for his milk round. He wasn’t disappointed with the result. Peter hand-stitched a beautifully crafted strong bag that was built to last. Such was the quality of the bag that Toby bought it back to the family business in 2010 for a replacement strap. With 43 years of history in its hands and Peter’s love of making beautifully crafted items, the company decided it was time to give the vintage bag a thoroughly modern makeover while using the traditional skills it is so proud of. Using skills passed down to make an array of accessories that match heritage with high fashion, each piece is available for personalisation.
