Heritage Tanbark Market Tote #1 of 50

Crafted with iconic tanbark sails, our Limited-Edition Heritage Tanbark Market Tote is an ode to the adventurous sailors and fishermen who depended on these rugged sails. The process to create tanbark sails was developed by these fishermen in the early 1800s. This pioneering technique was labor-intensive and done completely by hand to increase the durability of sails for harsh North Atlantic weather. Honoring the tanbark tradition, each handcrafted Heritage Tote is numbered and comes with a Certificate of Authenticity. Designed as an exclusive, limited-edition tote, there are only 46 available.

Heritage Collection

Every sail has a story, some have something greater.

Tanbark sails were a critical tool for fishermen in the North Atlantic.

It took the cooperation of an entire community to tan sails. Starting with the gathering of tree bark, then boiling the bark in large kettles, and finally dunking and drying sails, ropes, and traps in the mixture to imbue them with increased resistance to mold, mildew, and UV light.
