Know before you buy
The bag is crafted from durable coated canvas, which provides water resistance and structure. It is finished with natural leather trim, reinforced leather corners, and silver-toned hardware for added longevity.
With dimensions of 16 inches high and 12.5 inches wide, the main compartment can comfortably accommodate most standard 13-inch and 15-inch laptops. However, please note that there is no dedicated padded laptop sleeve inside.
The natural leather will develop a unique patina over time as it is exposed to the elements. You can keep the leather supple by occasionally applying a high-quality leather conditioner, but avoid getting the canvas material saturated with cleaning products.
The two side pockets are slim and designed for smaller essentials like a phone, keys, or a slim umbrella. They are generally too narrow to securely hold a standard-sized reusable water bottle.
Yes, Jon Hart Design offers hot stamping on the leather accents. This is a great way to add a custom monogram or name to your bag for a personalized touch.
The bag features adjustable webbing straps that allow you to customize the fit to your height and preference. While the straps are durable, they are not heavily padded, so keep this in mind if you plan on carrying heavy loads for extended periods.
