The Weekender Duffle — The Foundry by History Loves Company

Some bags are made to sit on a shelf and look good. The Weekender Duffle is made to go.

Weekend trip to the Upper Peninsula. Overnight in Detroit. A long Saturday at the studio. A gym run that turns into dinner that turns into staying over. The Weekender is built for the kind of movement that doesn’t announce itself in advance — the kind where you grab your bag, throw in what you need, and go.

Built in Pontiac, Michigan

Every bag in this first run is made in Pontiac, Michigan by our local manufacturing partner. Not overseas. Not in a warehouse somewhere outside the city. Here. In the same town where Pontiac automobiles were built, where manufacturing defined a generation, where the work ethic is still in the walls.

This batch is the beginning of something bigger. Once we sell through it, The Foundry will begin designing our own Pontiac-built brand of bags, wallets, and everyday carry goods — inspired by the city’s manufacturing history and built to last the way things used to be built. You’re holding the first chapter.

Meet Andy

Andy is a bike messenger who has ridden all over the country on fixed gear bicycles. He knows what it means to carry only what matters and move fast. Ask him about his Specialized Langster sometime when you stop into The Foundry. He’ll be happy to talk bikes, bags, and the open road.
