Know before you buy
Yes, the Navigator is designed to meet standard carry-on size requirements, allowing it to fit comfortably in most overhead compartments.
Veg-tanned leather is known for its durability and ability to develop a unique patina over time. While it is a natural material that will show character with use, the smooth grain is specifically chosen to withstand the rigors of travel.
Yes, the interior is equipped with a dual-sleeve system. It features a dedicated compartment for laptops up to 16 inches and a separate, smaller sleeve designed for tablets up to 13 inches.
The bag includes an adjustable and detachable shoulder strap that features extra padding to distribute weight more evenly across your shoulder, making it easier to carry through terminals.
To keep the leather in the best condition, store the bag in the included duster bag in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. This helps prevent dust accumulation and protects the finish.
The metal feet elevate the base of the bag slightly, which prevents the leather from coming into direct contact with dirty or abrasive surfaces when you set it down.
