Ten Second Takeaway

Set up by Avinash Bhalerao, Grain is a leather company where each product is a specialised masterpiece, crafted with passion and is durable enough to stand the test of time.

Textures and treats

Established in 2014 in Mumbai, Grain delivers across the country and is a combination of traditional artisan skills, best quality leathers and unique processes. We love how it's so beautifully designed without compromising on utility. Handcrafted and with special focus on the little details, we can confidently say that Grain's bags just get better with age.

Design done right

The funny thing about these bags are that they aren't mixed with any other material. For instance, they don't have a lining. It’s all leather, making the product premium. The design aesthetic has been kept minimal on purpose, and the beauty lies in the functionality of it. We love their big Canvas Pocket Totes that can fit your books, laptop and more {perfect for any given work day?}.

Delhi daily

An artisanal leather brand, if you are looking to gift the men in your life a standard men’s wallet, we’d recommend this place blindly. You can find them at Mumbai’s Kala Ghoda Filter Shop and Paper Boat collective in Goa. But us Dilliwallas can order their products on the Facebook page, since they are currently working on a website.

Where: Shop here. 

Price: On demand
