The Union Collection: Versatile Travel & Business Bags

The Pack is everything we have envisioned from a truly versatile daily bag. It offers the comfort of being carried as a backpack, while being every bit as adaptable as you need it to be. It is designed for the moments when you need a messenger, or for those meetings when you prefer to walk in with a briefcase style carry.
We all carry different objects, and each day requires us to pack specific stuff. That is why we created a bag that can be customised to your exact needs. The velcro protective dividers, let you organise your interior, or can be completely removed for maximum capacity.
The Pack comes with 4 interior dividers that allow you to organise your essentials just the way you want to.
By using the horizontal divider, the interior is essentially separated into two halves that can each be accessed separately. That way when you need to reach for an object in your bag, you can simply open the top or bottom half and have direct access.
You can forget about having to dig through your entire bag looking for it.
If you wish to turn your Pack into a full camera bag, there is the option of choosing the Add On dividers.
One of the favourite features of our previous Kickstarter backers is back! The instant access pocket means that you can grab your camera right away, even when carrying it as a backpack.
While the simplistic design of the Pack will mean that others won’t necessarily realise that it is a camera bag, we know that it is better to be on the safe side. That is why we developed a closing mechanism to decrease the ease with which the pocket can be opened. For complete peace of mind, the two zipper pulls can be secured together with a small padlock.
Our aim is and has always been to create high quality leather bags that pack unmatched versatility at affordable prices. We are confident that we are creating a quality to price ratio that is hard to match, but at the same time we are aware that our leather goods are not necessarily cheap.
That is why we want you to invest in a T. Forevers bag knowing that you will get the most out of it on a daily basis. The simple, timeless design of the Pack, allows you to carry it regardless of whether you are taking it on a walk around the city, or need a professional looking bag for an event.
Some of us simply carry a lot of stuff, even on a daily basis. That’s why we studied duffel after duffel and realised that they are simply not designed to carry all our digital gear.
The Duffel can be attached in less than a minute to the Slim. Simply unzip the exterior cover and zip up the Slim.
This is the go to city bag. It connects to both the Pack and the Duffel and it has all the essential features of a standalone bag that can carry your laptop, tablet, documents and any other chargers you may need throughout your day.
Our commitment to traditional craftsmanship is sometimes visible on the exterior of our goods, other times, it is hidden within the bag itself. That is why we want to share with our backers the process involved from sketch, to prototyping, to crafting.
Each handcrafted bag is unique in its own way to the one before it, each is imperfectly perfect. What you see and what you feel in your hands when you get your leather good is a representation of the growth and improvement of the craftsman’s set of skills throughout its career.
In other words, your Temporary Forevers bag is the sum total of every product previously created by the craftsman.
T. Forevers leather goods are handcrafted in Europe where we are proud to share workshop with some of the best known International brands.
We are founded upon a diverse background of knowledge and design experience, because we believe that only those not aware of their industry limits can break through the known and add a new perspective to a leather making craft bound by established tradition.
With a team of born travellers, our designs are inspired by the things we see and experience on our adventures. Therefore functionality and a simplistic design are key factors that drive the handcrafting process of every leather good that we create.
As a backer of our project, you become part of our team and therefore we believe it is our responsibility to be transparent with you throughout the production process.
We want you to see and be by our side at every significant step from the point our campaign reaches its goal, to the moment the parcel is delivered to your door step.
That is why, just as we did in our previous projects, we want to assure you that we will keep you in the loop with regular updates. Below are some of the comments from the backers that made our previous Kickstarter projects a reality.

Risks and challenges
We have learnt many valuable lessons from our 3 previous projects that we successfully funded and for which we delivered the rewards to approximately 2,000 backers. We have partnered with our two European based workshops for over 5 years and can therefore say with confidence that the craftsmen are able to create The Union Collection at the highest of quality standards.
The same holds true for our partnering Italian and Portuguese leather tanners which over the years have worked together with us to develop a line of leather specifically tanned for us. In addition to being proud to say that we create our collections with a unique leather, this means that we can adapt the leather to best fit our designs and crafting style.
Our experience does not necessarily mean that we may not face certain unexpected challenges or difficulties with our new project, but it does mean that we are prepared and have the knowledge to overcome them.
Thank you for your trust and we look forward to hearing your feedback once we have delivered the Union Collection to your doorstep.
