Red Label Accessories Launches American Hand/Crafted by Rawlings®

ST. LOUIS, March 10, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Red Label Accessories, LLC will be one of the few companies at the upcoming TGA trade show in Phoenix that is manufacturing 100% American-made goods.  This collection consists of duffel bags, briefcases, portfolios and other men's accessories.  Each bag is double-tanned by American hands for the distinguished owner to cherish and enjoy for generations to come.

As the debut line in the American Hand/Crafted Collection, the limited edition series showcases the fine attention to detail found in quality American handcraftsmanship of yesteryear.  The leather tannery developed a deep and beautiful bourbon hue exclusive to this limited edition collection that will age handsomely.

The handcraftsmanship of the double-tanned leather uses a technique that allows for optimal color saturation and longevity of the hide.  To signify its authentication, each bag is adorned with a numbered antique brass identification plate, while the personal leather goods are debossed with same numbered ID.  The bags are carefully finished with solid antique brass hardware.

Like a small batch of bourbon, the collection is limited in quantity and will not be available after depletion.

St. Louis-based Red Label Accessories continues to merge sophisticated design with signature styling.  The collections take the spirit of authenticity, enduring design and craftsmanship to the next level.

"We work closely with Rawlings in order to remain true to the brand's iconic sporting history, while adding a sense of style and luxury to the Vintage and American Hand/Crafted collections," said Tony Spielberg, President of Red Label Accessories, LLC.

A signature color, Tobacco, will be introduced late Fall 2014.  View the lineup of Red Label Accessories, LLC products at www.american-handcrafted.com or www.redlabelaccessories.com.
