"detail in the material is chef’s kiss."

"I’ve purchased two bags from Smith + Parka and they’re both of amazing quality and they’re incredibly unique from what’s on the market ! You’re getting high end bags for really decent prices. The service and attention to detail in the material is chef’s kiss. David is really sweet and truly cares for the satisfaction of his customers."
