Know before you buy
Yes, the Barton features a dedicated padded sleeve specifically designed to accommodate laptops up to 15 inches. The sleeve dimensions are 15.5" x 9" x 1", ensuring a snug and protected fit for most standard models.
Absolutely. It includes a convenient back carry-strap that slides over the handle of your rolling luggage, making it easy to navigate through airports or transit hubs.
The Barton weighs 3.9 lbs. While the full-grain leather construction provides significant durability and a premium feel, it is a structured, high-quality piece that carries some weight.
Yes, the shoulder strap is fully removable. You can easily detach it to carry the bag by its top handles for a more formal, streamlined look.
The single-gusset design is intended for a sleek, professional profile, but it remains functional. It includes multiple interior organizer pockets, a zippered pocket, and two generous front pockets to keep your chargers, documents, and daily essentials organized.
Because it is crafted from premium full-grain American pebbled leather and oil-tanned saddle leather, it is quite durable. We recommend using a high-quality leather conditioner occasionally to keep the material supple and protected from drying out.
