It all started with a kid from New York City.
As an architect on the move, commuting from meetings to workouts to dinners, Ben Smith could never find a bag that was both stylish and practical.
So he built one himself.
Launched in 2024, Slug is timeless, durable, and effortlessly adaptable. Inspired by a simple bag of oranges, its flexible, shape-shifting Japanese denim adjusts to all your carrying needs. With refined leather and metal hardware, the Slug is suitable for any occasion.
The Pocket-Sized Book Bag.
