I love this story, it is the ultimate testament to the durability of fiveleft leathergoods.
This is what the clutch looked like when it was assembled in my studio on Breakfast Television.
months later it flew off the roof of my car and was smushed by 32 hours of traffic on the Burrard St. Bridge....then it looked like this.
After I found, it I got it wet and folded it back into shape. I did not need to repair it at all, nothing was broken…just mangled. It was still functional.
It was then purchased for a Christmas gift in 2008, and went to the 2009 Leo awards. And is still in use today.
It will be on display in the granville optical window (corner of granville and robson) for the month of march 2010.
