He grew up in Mesquite, Texas, where his grandmother taught him valuable skills on a 1950s sewing machine. He now lives in Nashville, but stays close to his roots and memories of his grandmother as he produces made-to-order leather bags featuring Martexin waxed canvas, all brass hardware and the Hunker logo.
“I believe that a good bag does two things,” says Hunker. “It holds and protects your personal possessions and takes you on an adventure every day.”
The website features a variety of different bags including Duffel No. 1 (from $300), The Mail Pouch ($200), The Wilkerson Brief ($225), The Highwayman Rolltop ($250), Utility Pouch (from $70) and Docking Traveler ($80).
Hunker is currently on tour with Green River Ordinance. They play a wide variety of cities from now until the middle of November. Check their website for specific dates. And pack up your concert traveling gear in one of Hunker’s bags.
