Freedom Rider Tote
One-of-a-Kind Upcycled Cowboy Boot Bag

Celebrate liberty and craftsmanship with this one-of-a-kind handbag, handcrafted from deconstructed vintage cowboy boots and inspired by the spirit of American pride. This ruggedly beautiful bag features a rich blue embossed leather interior and two hand-sewn red leather pockets, each stitched in with durable leather lace. One pocket has an open design adorned with a metal flag charm, “FREEDOM” letter dangles, and a heart-shaped leather patch reclaimed from the original boot. The second pocket features a flap closure and a coordinating leather patch.

The exterior is boldly accented with silver metal star rivets along the top edges, front and back. Each boot pull is embellished with antique nickel “God Bless America” conchos. The hand-cut and sewn magnetic strap closure is secured with a matching concho on both front and back.

Leather wither straps—originally horse tack—serve as the adjustable handles. They are painted with a feather motif and the word “FREEDOM,” and attach with swivel hooks for ease and versatility. The bag’s structure is crafted using three traditional hand-sewing methods: running stitch, double loop lacing, and appliqué lacing—each stitch telling a story of care and individuality.
