R Riveter states:
R. Riveter bags are made by military spouses. Parts come from all over the country. This makes each R. Riveter bag a symbol of the American Spirit and the R. Riveter connection as a military community.
A close look at the components making up the R. Riveter bag will reveal a number stamped into leather or inked into fabric. Each R. Riveter spouse stamps their individual number into each part they make.
The larger R. Riveter story has been created chapter by chapter by each individual military spouse involved in the R. Riveter Company. Just like each bag is created part by part.
Each R. Riveter bag is full of history and ready to embark on the next stage of the upcycled journey.
I wish to say:
I want to personally thank Sandra, Patricia, & Gigi K. for the work they did on my GRANT Signature Leather/Canvas tote bag purse by the R. Riveter American Handmade Company.
GRANT is a great bag. It can hold quite a bit and because I use a purse organizer inside my large purses, I can find what I need easily with plenty of room left over to zip my bag securely closed.
There are several other tote bag purses sold by the R. Riveter American Handmade Company; but I like the size of the GRANT and the security of the zipper closure feature of the GRANT the best. ( it is much more difficult for thieves to stick their hands in my bag and steal from me since I can zip close my GRANT...this is not an available feature on all purses but for me a zipper closure is a necessary security feature ) I also like that the GRANT can be worn as a shoulder bag or on my arm.
The GRANT comes in several different colors. I usually prefer a unicolor bag so this time I bought the unicolor black GRANT but there are other color choices. ( Olive, Cobblestone, etc. )
There is even a "World Traveler Kit" which includes the GRANT tote bag purse, a wallet, a Dopp Kit, etc. for those who wish to use the GRANT as more of a small travel bag than simply an everyday bag.
Take a look at the many other products made by the R. Riveter American Handmade Company besides their purses, the store and website are definitely worth a look.
I wish to thank the military spouses who made my GRANT Signature Leather/Canvas tote bag purse by the R. Riveter American Handmade Company and all the military spouses who work for the R. Riveter American Handmade Company. You do marvelous work. I love my bag and when the next collection becomes available; I will do more shopping! read more
