Design

Smart Storage
Separate padded compartments securely store laptops up to 16" MacBook Pro, providing peace of mind during travel or commutes. Thoughtfully designed multi-functional pockets accommodate business cards, pens, USB drives, and more, allowing for efficient organization. The top zipper pocket enables quick access to essential items like mobile phones and power banks, ensuring convenience on the go. The side pocket is designed to hold a small water bottle, allowing you to stay hydrated throughout your day. A built-in key chain keeps keys easily accessible, eliminating the need to rummage through the backpack.

Adjustable + Padded Strap
Adjustable and padded shoulder pads offer optimal comfort, even during extended wear, reducing strain on your shoulders.

Gets Softer With Time
True full grain leather, crafted well, doesn't just last a lifetime — it gets better with each use. The wear of your trips, connections, and luggage will soften it, and mold it exactly to your needs. Brass studs and industrial strength zippers can take a lifetime of baggage carousels and crammed overhead bins.

Built For a Lifetime
True full grain leather, crafted well, doesn't just last a while — it gets better with each use. The wear of your trips, connections, and luggage will soften it, and mold it exactly to your needs. Brass studs and industrial strength zippers can take years of baggage carousels and crammed overhead bins.

Materials

1mm Thick Full Grain Leather
Handcrafted with 1 mm thick full grain premium leather from LWG gold certified tanneries. Aging beautifully, the natural finish develops a unique patina and softness over time, providing a distinct character to the backpack.

Antique Brass Hardware
The antique brass finish hardware complements the leather, elevating the overall design with its timeless elegance.

Brass Bits
Everything on the bag that's not leather, is brass. That's because brass can take a beating— so can the hooks, zippers, rivets and studs on your new bag. Brass rivets not only resist corrosion but also add to the backpack's strength and aesthetic appeal, showcasing attention to detail.

YKK Zipper
Equipped with YKK brass zippers, the best in the world, ensuring smooth and reliable functionality for easy access and secure closure.

Questions About The Leather Backpack

How long until I receive my order?

The Leather Backpack arrives approximately from the day of order.

Our products take longer to arrive than most others on the internet. But there's a good reason why. Most of our pieces are made to order and ship directly from the source. We don’t keep warehouses or carry excess inventory. This is how we cut costs and pass thousands in savings back to you. But it also means you have to wait a bit longer.

What is your return policy

The Leather Backpack can be returned after receiving the order only if the product is damaged or unusable.

Our products are made to order. So we cannot offer returns for changes in preference. But we always do what we can to make it right.

To be returned, products need to be completely unused and still in their original packaging.

How can I track my order?

The Leather Backpack ships within of order placement.

Once your order has been shipped, you will receive an email with tracking details, allowing you to monitor its progress. Simply use the provided tracking information on our delivery partner’s website to stay updated on your shipment.

Judge us by our looks

Our packaging is safe, simple, and proudly no frills. We don't think it makes sense to pay for things you throw away immediately.

That's why the Leather Backpack ships in the same protective packaging the manufacturer uses, covered in functional stickers and foreign stamps showing the journey it's been on.

We don't hide it and wear it as a badge of honor for the places our products have been and the people who made them.
