Stylo Bags

Stylo Bags is located at No. 34 Saint Xavier Street on the first floor in the Broadway area. Being on the first floor means we are slightly removed from the direct chaos of the street, but we still hear everything going on below us. Broadway is a legendary spot for commerce and we are proud to be a small part of it. The building is older, with high ceilings and some narrow doorways that make moving large boxes a bit of a challenge. We mostly make bags here, so you’ll see material everywhere—leather, canvas, and heavy thread. It’s a bit of a maze inside with all the different sections for cutting and stitching. We don’t have a professional decorator; we just put things where they make sense for the daily workflow. The floor is plain concrete and we have some old fans that keep the air moving during the summer months. Most of our day is spent making sure the seams are strong and the zippers work exactly right. We aren't interested in being a fancy brand with a big expensive logo. We just want to make bags that last for the people who buy them. Our team is small and we’ve worked together for a long time, so we don't need to say much to get the job done. Lunch is usually a quick affair in the corner so we can get back to the machines. It’s just how we do it here.
