Featured Artisan: Hunker Bag Co.

Denton Hunker, the drummer of Green River Ordinance, was on the lookout for a durable, yet stylish bag to use while on the road. When he didn’t come across any products that would keep up with his touring lifestyle, he decided to take matters into his own hands. Turns out, not only is Hunker a rock star on stage, but also on the sewing machine. After a few years of making bags for himself, he felt it only made sense to make the products he loved for other people to enjoy them as well. Thus began Hunker Bag Co.

Each bag is made to order with the utmost care and precision using top grain leather, Martexin waxed canvas, all brass hardware and branded with the Hunker logo and while he’s upgraded to a 1970s machine, he still utilizes techniques he learned from his grandmother.

Hunker’s mission is to create superior products that people are proud to carry. “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.”
