Too Big to Sail
Portland-based business that makes unique bags out of old ship sales.
They have fifty locations all throughout the eastern seaboard, Michigan--and even one location in CA.
The Good:
*Housed in a really cool old building (ca.1911)
*All the bags are hand-made in Portland, ME
*Not just bags, but pillows, purses, and chairs.
*Friendly service
*All the bags are beautiful, and they have many great designs.
The Meh:
*Parking can be a hassle in DT Belfast, especially during the summer--but at least it's free!
The Ugly:
*Prices are pretty high, as the most inexpensive bag we saw was $75, and the higher end ones were closer to $250.
Conclusion: Beautiful bags, but be prepared to pay the piper. read more
