This was the first male bag I produced for our our line. It was produced to be stylish, classy, and fit for men who aren’t afraid of style. We currently are producing an exclusive bag for men that will allow clients to choose the color they want the bag to be. We are also designing a signature luggage line for the company.  Material use to produce the first generation of Don Duffel was a leather with an ostrich print. The reason we chose this fabric is because it gave the bag a more luxury feel and look. Our target clientele consist of middle to high class that want a Louis Vuitton look without the price tag. Our continued inspiration are men who come to us needing a function yet classy bag. What makes our bags special is the fact that each male bag we produce are made in a unisex fashion.

Our line started when my tailor at the age of 17 loved my designs and thought that I should go deeper with them. I did not take it serious until my mid twenties. The reason I started to take it serious is because too many men between the age of 18 and 54 were dressing like bums. Donnie Wellz is not a name; it is a personality! Donnie Wellz-means "The ruler of the world can be found in the word". To break it down further. Donnie-means ruler of the world. and Wellz-is a symbolization for the Holy Bible. Just as a Well holds water, so is the Living Word. And now you know who and what Donnie Wellz is all about.

I had a client about two years ago that NEEDED a Don Duffel for travel around the same time I was having a fashion show. I was having about 100 bags made at the time and they were suppose to be delivered in time for the client and the fashion show. As the days got closer and closer to the clients leave date, the bag had not arrived. I later found out that my supplier was having trouble finding the right fabric for the job. Now this was very weird because my supplier is NEVER late with an order. It was a disaster! Not only did I not have to bag for the client, I had no bags ready for sale at the fashion show. Our greatest achievement in this process has been being able to see how everyone is needed to make one vision come to past. Not the money, and not the fame, it has been a pleasure working with the people behind the scenes who make this company great!
