Excuse Me? Excuse You!
We have succumbed to an age where the value of money has deteriorated and society as a whole has become materialistic and object-orientated.
‘Excuse me? Excuse you!’ is an attentive character. Embodied within a hand crafted messenger bag, its evocative whispers make spending money emotionally harder. Inverting the value given to consumerism, the concept creates a negative association with spending.
With every scuff in the leather, your relationship with the bag grows; it is a piece of fashion that never becomes obsolete. Although cheeky and critical, ‘Excuse me? Excuse you!’ is an old friend looking out for our best interests.
