Admiration: Fabric Horse

Ever since Duncan graciously gave me my mini-krypto belt holder, I’ve sworn by Fabric Horse. I wear it every day, as it saves so much time digging in your bag, not to mention preventing a clunky lock from jabbing into your back. But what really makes the Philadelphia-based brand so good is their ethos. From their ‘about’ section the website, 

‘As a company, Fabric Horse aims to preserve the ritual of the handmade and by that token, all Fabric Horse products are designed and sewn by the two of us in our studio in Philadelphia’s Chinatown. Each piece is made for you from scratch by a single pair of hands. As an environmentally and socially conscious company, all products are constructed from scavenged, reused, recycled, or environmentally friendly fabrics. Sometimes these materials are combined with exciting vinyls and upholstery for even more of that FH flare you know you love, in products you never dreamed possible. Fabric Horse remains committed to bringing you fresh designs that help you do what you do best and look good while doing it. 

The design aesthetic of our small company is constantly changing, inspired by the streets we ride everyday and by the people of our fair Philadelphia. Fabric Horse owes much of its success and continued support to the bicycle community, which fuels our work day in, day out. Mary and Carrie commute most days on two wheels and conduct FH business entirely by bicycle. FH will never outsource its labor overseas and FH products will never be for sale in a mall. This is a promise. ‘

That’s a good business ethic, one that is timeless and will get you through any economic downturn. More companies could afford to take note of this gameplan, instead of just begin of-the-moment. Now I just gotta get my hands on one of the utility belts! Check their stocklist for a retailer that sells Fabric horse near you.
