Blk Pine Workshop - Road to Ethiopia

Blk Pine Workshop recently collaborated with the amazing Seattle based coffee roaster 'Caffe Vita', here is the awesome story of the project as told by Blk Pine Workshop -
To celebrate Caffé Vita 20 year anniversary as an independent coffee roaster here Seattle, we developed a Travel Pack that would handle a basic city commute to work, but also allow a world traveler to take this bag out on the road and get it a little dusty. For this trip Caffé Vita captured their green bean buyer Daniel on the road to Ethiopia last year with one of our bags.
"Every trip to this incredible land deepens our appreciation for coffee. It permeates the fabric of society and touches the hands of so many, treated with respect and admiration. In no other country can one pull over to the side of the road, just about anywhere, to a tantalizing ‘jebena bunna’ – traditional cup of coffee; freshly roasted and prepared with pride."
- Daniel Shewmaker, Green Coffee Buyer, in Ethiopia with the Travel Pack.

The Travel Pack features include 18 oz. duck canvas – 100% cotton, nylon handle, canvas webbing and adjustable nylon straps, interior sleeve pocket, Vita travel mug sleeve, metal snap buttons and strap adjusters.

New Lookbook:  "Studio Days"

Each season we like to invite one of our favorite photographers to do a Lookbook with us and we are honored to announce that our Summer 2014 Collection was shot by 

Los Angeles photographer, Diana Koenigsberg (  http://www.dianakoenigsberg.com  ) at XIX Studio ( http://xixstudios.com ) in Los Angeles.

Diana is a skilled studio photographer so we thought she would be a great photographer to work with as our concept for Summer 14 was to keep it simple and clean - and to do our first ever look-book shoot in a studio - thus the title  "Studio Days."
