Know before you buy
The laptop sleeve measures 14.5" x 8.25". While it accommodates most standard 15-inch laptops, please verify your specific device dimensions against these measurements to ensure a proper fit.
Full-grain bison leather is exceptionally durable and known for its rugged texture. Over time, it will develop a unique patina that hides minor scratches and scuffs, actually improving in character the more you use it.
Yes, the briefcase includes an adjustable and detachable shoulder strap that allows for crossbody or shoulder carry. The weight of the bag is approximately 4.5 pounds, so the strap is designed to distribute that load effectively during travel.
The interior is lined with protective canvas and features dedicated document dividers and pen holders. These compartments help keep your files and smaller accessories separated and easy to locate.
Yes, the exterior features a magnetic snap pocket designed for items you need to grab quickly, such as a phone, passport, or boarding pass.
Because it is full-grain leather, you can occasionally apply a high-quality leather conditioner to keep the material supple. Avoid harsh chemicals and store it in a cool, dry place when not in use to maintain the integrity of the hide.
