I just received the latest "Brooks Despatch" in my e-mail folder this
morning.  Here's a link if any of you are interested:

I thought it was interesting that Brooks now makes their leather bags
in Britain (Birmingham), and canvas baggage in Italy (Tuscany). This
is a change from their previous manufacture in China.

Whatever your opinions are pertaining to the Chinese manufacture of
bicycle products, I think its nice to see them return to their
proximate point of origin.  When I think of Brooks, I definitely think
of a traditional British product.

*Note:  Many of these products aren't inexpensive, but they weren't
inexpensive when sourced from China either!
