Herds of the Fathers: Bags for the Urban Fashionisto or the Sophisticated Gentleman



Herds of the Fathers was created by Jason Akoi and Tobi Babajide, two New Jersey natives who met while attending Rutgers University. They started the line because they wanted leather backpacks but they couldn't find any that fitted their style. Then, they decided to start making their own bags in the dorm room, bags that were useful for a full time college student but had that original touch to fit their personality and their style! Jason and Tobi are still in college but they find the time to promote their line and to run their company.
Their bags are really functional whether it's for work, school or just your daily bag. Functionality associated with a smart and funky look, what more can you ask for in a bag? I say, nothing!
All the bags are handmade and made with the premium quality leather. They haven't opened a store yet but you can buy those little babies on their website HerdsoftheFathers.com. A Herds of the Fathers piece will cost you from 60$ for a mini backpack from 310$ for a duffle bag (kind of expensive but those beauties deserve it!).

I (This is Doll speaking) want a new bag and I had been thinking about a duffle bag(I say: New school year, New bag!), I'll post pictures of it as soon as I buy it (it should be in a week or two). I think I might even get one of those mini backpacks in the Herds of the Father line, don't you think they're the cuttest thing ever?

Anyways, check out Herds of the Fathers, I'm always extremely happy to see young people making their dreams come true and succeeding at whatever they do, so support them and follow them on twitter @herds_fathers
