*A note from Tim.
When was the first bum bag created, it must have been sometime before they became popular in the 80’s? Surely they have existed forever…?
Before I get distracted with another Google search; we were inspired to design Tiger due to the absolute handiness of a bag that Mathilde found lurking in the back of her closet. A vintage bum bag, French in origin and perfectly neon orange, falling apart, we couldn’t help but wonder what it would look like reimagined for now, in the custom C+S waxed canvas. Pencil to photoshop, off went the drawings and a few months later a prototype arrived. After a few tweaks and changes, here it lay, a bum bag, called Tiger Bum. The proof was always in the pudding, and today it’s our most popular none backpack bag! Who’d have thunk it…

Frequently asked questions.
+ Is the bag waterproof?
The outside canvas has a unique water repellant treatment that makes the canvas rain proof. The natural and vegan process the canvas undertakes is ideal for all normal weather and conditions, it can also be further treated with Cora + Spink wax finishes. Over time the canvas will need to be topped up if you're outdoors lots. Please get in touch if you need more information.
+ What is the returns policy?
We accept returns within 30 days where the product has not been used and is returned to us in the same condition (so we can sell it) as it arrived. This includes all straps, buckles, packaging, labels and other supplemental items included in the original sale. Please contact us directly to authorise and obtain a returns address. Full refund/returns policy is available here.
+ Care instructions.
All C + S products are made by hand using natural materials. They are strong and robust, but do require care and attention to ensure they have a long and fulfilling life. We recommend removing mud and stains with a stiff brush, you can then use a damp cloth to gently remove any unwanted marks.
Due to the nature of the material finish, you may encounter fading of the canvas - this is to be expected. Don't use harsh chemicals, and do not wash in a washing machine. Specialist cleaners can help - if you have a particularly difficult stain please contact us directly, and we will do our best to advise.
+ Is it vegan?
Short answer, absolutely yes. No animal products or by products are used in the production of the backpacks, this includes but is not limited to the glues and treatments, the inks, dyes and the waxes... the working environment where all the backpacks are made is exclusively used only for Core + Spink products, meaning we control all elements of production.

This was meant to be a gift for my sister in law - but it accidentally got kept by me. Adore the colour and shape, and how easy it is to wear. Love the little note that came in the package. #supportsmallbusiness. Wi Yates.

Although I am biased, I have followed Tim and his journey with C+S for the last 4 years - Tiger Bum was my most recent purchase. If you're looking for a simple, everyday bag then this could be what you're looking for. It's brilliant over the shoulder, as a cross body bag (see the pictures) but can also be worn old skool style around the waist. The materials and craftsmanship is second to none - and I personally know that Tim cares so much about the sourcing of all the materials. #supportsmallbusiness.

Just received first samples of our new Its Navy canvas complete with a new finish applied. Different colours and different batches of canvas during the year have quite different or varying "handles", we love this change as it reflects the true nature of a natural material. But this doesn`t stop us from fiddling. Here we were experimenting with a stiffener that we can apply to give the canvas a slightly different feel, unfortunately it appears the effect has affected the waterproofing... These at home tests are great for seeing immediately how the canvas may perform... #test #canvas #byhand #waterproof #backpack #waxed
