Cowhide leather
Know your leather
Made from 100% full-grain cowhide, Crazy Horse leather is prized for its strength, character, and ability to age gracefully. Treated with natural waxes, it develops a rich, rugged patina over time—each scratch and mark becoming part of its story. Thick, durable, and unapologetically raw, it’s a material that reflects authenticity and craftsmanship in every inch.
SOLID BRASS & YKK ZIPPERS
Know Your Hardware
Built to endure. We use only solid brass hardware and YKK zippers—the gold standard in reliability. From the smooth glide of every zip to the satisfying weight of each buckle, these components are chosen for function and feel. They won’t just last—they’ll get better with age, just like the leather they’re paired with.
THOUGHTFUL STORAGE
Know Your Space
Inside, three spacious compartments keep your essentials in order—laptops, files, notebooks, and more. The central section is large enough for a full-sized laptop, while interior and exterior zippered pockets offer quick, secure access to smaller items. Available in two sizes: 16" (W) x 12" (H) x 3" (D) and 18" (W) x 13" (H) x 4" (D). Choose the fit that matches your workflow—compact and efficient, or spacious and ready for everything.
