Pair that with a commitment to quality goods, crafted in the good ‘ol USA, and you've got something special. Perhaps best known for their watches and bikes, Shinola also manufactures leather goods such as bags, wallets and phone cases, as well as paper and linen journals. shinola bike and white wall and bags According to the brand's website:

"We’re starting with the reinvigoration of a storied American brand, and a storied American city. Because we believe in the beauty of industry. The glory of manufacturing. We know there’s not just history in Detroit, there is a future."
