Bold Timeless Utility
know Your Style
Designed for men who move with purpose, this briefcase makes a statement without saying a word. From boardrooms to train stations, its distressed full-grain cowhide leather exterior and Timeless Chocolate Brown color exude rugged confidence. Whether you sling it over your shoulder with the adjustable strap or carry it by the durable top handles, this bag pairs heritage styling with functional design. The clean lines, aged texture, and expert craftsmanship signal more than style—they speak of intention and experience.

Form Meets Function
Know your space
Tailored to meet the needs of modern professionals, this bag is available in two versatile sizes: 16" W x 12.5" H x 3" D and 18" W x 13" H x 4" D. The spacious interior is thoughtfully divided to keep your workflow sharp—whether you're carrying a laptop, books, or documents. Inside, you’ll find a padded laptop compartment, plus multiple compartments to sort your gear. On the outside, two front zippered organizer pockets store your cards, phone, and pens, while two side pockets and a rear zippered pocket give you quick access to your daily tools. Every inch is designed for efficient movement.

Built To Last
Know Your Material
Crafted from distressed full-grain cowhide leather, this bag isn't just a tool—it’s a companion built to age gracefully alongside you. The canvas-lined interior provides durability and a clean finish, while premium hardware and removable clip fasteners on the strap ensure secure, long-term wear. Each stitch, pocket, and panel is reinforced with purpose, making every detail—from zipper to handle—part of a structure that’s designed for the long haul. As with all natural leather, no two bags are identical—subtle variations in tone and texture make yours uniquely yours.
