Hard Graft




Gotta love what they are doing at Hard Graft. You can tell the quality of materials and craftmanship that goes into the products. Here is more info from their site:

Hard Graft
An independent creative company with a simple honest approach to design. Based in Austria, in a medieval Schloss surrounded by vineyards and apricot orchards. We're not very big but we're good and we're passionate about what we create. hard graft™ products are handmade entirely in Austria & Italy and we endeavour to use only natural sustainable materials.

We specially developed a top grade 100% wool felt with a traditional German felt factory to fit our requirements. This 3mm thick felt is carefully made from fine selected fibres and then compressed giving it the perfect characteristics to protect your precious possessions - sturdy yet soft, water repellant, shock-absorbing and of course environmentally responsible.

Our leather is premium European cow leather which feels, smells and looks like leather should. Only the best hides from South Germany and Italy are hand selected using the honest method of dying the colour through. All of this combined to give you the exclusive feel of luxury.. We love the leather for it's natural qualities. It has a beautiful patina and skin structure which matures over time.
