Orvis approached Temple Bags to participate in their “US Patent” catalog. We gladly accepted the offer since we are proud to be producing our re-purposed collection here in America. The US Patent Catalog features hand selected pieces from some amazing brands that are still producing goods state-side. Take a look at the limited edition backpack that we designed for Orvis here.

Congratulations to Philipp Defner who guess the magical number of 150 zippers and will now be the proud owner of our best selling Leather iPad Case. We’ll be posting another contest soon, so don’t be too sad you didn’t win.

What gets you up in the morning: Some weeks ago i probably would have answered “school” because that was the reason i got up in the morning. Now i got my degree and don’t have to worry about this anymore. I got a lot of spare time now until uni starts so i go swimming with my friends, read comics, watch TV series, working with my soldering iron, watch movies and listen to music. I also love gadgets and all kind of electronic stuff. That’s what my life is about at the moment. I’d say being a geek is my passion. (Not the i-hate-sunlight kind of geek though).

He attached his grandfather’s Air Force wings to the case so that his legacy would be remembered every day.

William E. Wendling Sr. was a brave Air Force pilot who served from Dec 8, 1941 to Dec 24, 1945. He piloted a C-47 and instructed the 64th Troop Carrier Group.

Temple is proud to be a part of the Wendling family legacy.

Apple is unleashing their iPad tomorrow. Apparently they are sold-out, and about 500,000 people are going to get their hands on one of these beauties this Saturday.  We grabbed the dimensions from the Apple site last week and put together a case that we feel not only protects, but enhances the experience. The all leather iPad case will only grow more impressive with time and use. We want this all leather iPad case to look like a portfolio your grandfather may have pulled from the closet to remember “days from a better time”

We hope you enjoy using it as much as we enjoyed creating it.
