The Gaston bag from Bleu de Chauffe is one of the brand's most iconic models. This shoulder bag is made from a 100% cotton canvas produced in France, waxed and stonewashed for a vintage look. This canvas was originally used for renovating Jeep Willys MB, an off-road military vehicle that first appeared in the 1940s. Featuring a large main compartment that can accommodate a 15-inch laptop, complemented by a dated and signed removable zippered cotton pouch made by the craftsman who manufactured the bag, it also has 2 side pockets and a large rear pocket with a magnetic closure to store your most precious belongings. All the panels and the shoulder strap are made from robust vegetable-tanned leather that will naturally soften over time.

While more than 90% of global leather production is carried out using chrome-tanned leathers or heavy chemical agents, Bleu de Chauffe opts for the only alternative manufacturing process: vegetable tanning. It's a natural action that gives the leather better durability, a natural look and feel, with the added benefit of a beautiful patina over the years. Note that the use of living materials can lead to slight irregularities in the grain or shade, which enhances the uniqueness of each model.
