A Grand Rapids retailer has released a new line of canvas bags.

Brothers Leather Supply Co. in Grand Rapids said last month the line includes two backpacks and a duffel bag, named after three big-city nicknames: The Windy City Backpack; The Motown Backpack; and The Big Easy Duffle.

The backpacks retail at $195, and the duffel bag is $215.

Additional canvas products will be released in the future, including a dopp kit, or toiletry bag, and another backpack.

Adam Kail, CEO of Brothers Leather Supply Co., said the company has worked on developing the canvas line for more than a year.

Kail and his wife, Beth Kail, started the company by selling leather goods in 2014.

The company now has a store in town, at 15 S. Division Ave.
