About this piece
Hemp cloth starts stiff and ends up like soft canvas. It is far more abrasion-resistant than cotton at the same weight, which is why it has been Nepal's workaday textile for centuries.
Lined so the weave does not snag what you put in it. The strap is adjustable and the stitching is doubled at both anchor points, which is where these bags fail if they are going to.
