Cult Of One – Scout Duffel Bag

CULT OF ONE is a passion project of mine, a literally obsession born from my time in the apparel industry in SOUTH AFRICA.
After years of watching product loose its core value and become a disposable element, I moved to create a brand that captured my beliefs in what product should be. Ethical, reliable and directly related to the craftsman and the owner.

CULT OF ONE is that brand.

This is the SCOUT DUFFEL BAG, completely hand made of 13oz all natural cotton canvas. Detailing and handling is made up of locally sourced leather, 4-6mm thick and hand filed when thinning is needed.
All rivets are 8mm hand hammered nickel rivets.
Strap detailing varies from 35mm x 15mm natural cotton rope tape to 40mm natural cotton tape.

Buckle and clip details are steel, sourced locally and the entire piece is lined with 9oz raw imported denim.

Closing internally is done by means of a 12mm cotton draw rope which has been end treated with rubber dip finishing. External closure is a leather locking band, made to accommodate a physical lock to allow to secure traveling.

Only two units have been made.
