Whipping Post - Musician's Leather Goods

Interesting Story behind Whipping Post Leather. This Atlanta based leather goods company was founded by Ryan Barr, as something that could age with time and maintain its classic appeal like any well-made instrument. He always wanted to create a bag for his guitar that matched its character, which is : "Despite being banged up, scratched and abused, it looks and plays great". He made lots of sketch and searched for the best leather and he ended up in Mexico, working with the owner of one of the finest leather shop in the world.

So Far, we can find 2 products from Whipping Post, Guitar Cases and Wallets. The Guitar case is amazing, using 100% Full Grain Leather, hand sewn with marine grade threading, comes with strap that works as a backpack or shoulder strap. With features like that, no wonder why the price is pretty up high.

Meanwhile the Wallet comes in a very simple easy wallet design. Available in 2 colors (Mojave Sand and Georgia Brown), Whipping Post's Wallet comes with 3 Credit Card slots, Cash Compartment, pocket for guitar pick, and Driver license compartment. And off course, the wallets are also using 100% Full Grain Leather.

Ryan Barr said that he could've made this bag cheaper and tried to sell millions of them, but that wasn't his goal. Whipping Post used the toughest, most expensive full grain leather you can find.
