The Artifact Blog

Our apron restoration is inspired by military “rigger repairs” used on vintage parachutes, field uniforms, and field gear. Although expedient by design, these unique repairs have always caught my eye as having a frenetic, artful quality. They are a wonderful intersection where utility meets art.

A short video showing our ARTIFACT studio in Omaha, Nebraska - where we make specialty aprons and bags, including our popular No.180 Harness Tote. Chris shares techniques used in making this tote as well as his inspiration in designing it.

Part 2 in a series where I share favorite objects I love to look at and use. These objects may seem unrelated, but their common thread is quality, utility, and timeless design - the same principles we strive for at ARTIFACT.
