Philanthropist Briefcase

Just arrived in Seattle, the last of these extremely ltd-edition, Apolis Activism/Filson collab bags are made with navy canvas and sturdy English bridle leather sourced from Invisible Children, a non-profit started in 2009 to rebuild a Ugandan cotton industry depleted by civil war; the more highbrow goal's to "connect the hands that make a product to the hands that wear the product" (silly nonprofit, this could've all been handled with a call to Stretch Armstrong).
