About Us:
We've been Ghurka fans and collectors since 1979! Even though we've sold over 1000 Ghurka bags and items, we still have over 2000 vintage Ghurka bags & accessories in our possession, perhaps the most extensive collection of vintage Ghurka bags in the world! So, we know Ghurka bags inside out, the history, the material, and how to take care of them. We don't claim to offer the Ghurka bags the lowest price online; we never think Ghurka bags deserve to be cheap! We promise that the Ghurka bags you buy from us have gone through extensive 11 to 18 steps of care to ensure the bags are in their condition possible for years of future because we care about our Ghurka bags; when we ship the bags to you, we include a small jar of leather moisturizer made for that kind of leather that has proved to be the best for applying the leather cream on Ghurka leather.



 
About Ghurka: (from Ghurka website)
Founded in Connecticut in 1975 by luxury belt and brace designer Marley Hodgson, Ghurka has served as a symbol of superior American leather craftsmanship for over thirty years. 
The origins of the Ghurka brand can be traced back to a fortuitous discovery at a British auction house in the early 1970s. Hodgson inspired a love of history and leather craft bid on Hodgson campaign travel gear and leather boots formerly owned by a British Ghurka officer stationed in India at the turn of the 20th century. He was so impressed by the quality of the nearly century-old leather – durable yet supple despite its age – and by the intricate craftsmanship that he was compelled to launch a line of comparable leather accessories. Hodgson tracked down the lost tanning formula for these boots and other accouterments carried by the legendary Ghurka regiments and applied the manufacturing process to his new collection ".
With a new dedicated management team, I am sure we will see more of Ghurka, better and more versatile than ever! (My comment).
