This design was inspired by an old childhood baseball bat that Robbins found in his parents' home while searching for a glove to play catch with his son. The bat, a familiar and simple object, was quite beautiful to rediscover. The shape of the bat informs the legs and the leather band surrounding the middle has a baseball stitch joining the leather together. This collection comes from a reacquaintance with youthful objects and timeless craftsmanship.
