03Good to know

Questions

Straight answers to the questions we hear most.

Will my laptop fit?

Yes, up to 16 in, carried in the main compartment with a charger and notebook alongside it.

Can I wear it on the shoulder?

Yes. The handles clear the shoulder comfortably, and it carries just as well in the hand.

Aurora or Nova?

They match on size, leather and hardware. The Aurora is the softer silhouette; the Nova is the structured one that stands upright on the floor. Choose the shape you prefer.

What is it made from?

Full-grain leather lined in cotton, with solid brass and stainless steel on the handles, rings and clasps — fittings that wear to a patina rather than losing their finish.

Is the monogram included?

Yes. Up to three initials, engraved into the leather before the bag leaves the workshop, included in the price.

How do I care for it?

A dry cloth for dust, and a leather conditioner two or three times a year. The color deepens and the hand softens with use.

When will it arrive?

Ships in 1–2 business days (monogrammed pieces take a little longer, as each is engraved to order). Delivery is 5–10 business days to the US, Canada, UK, Europe, Australia and New Zealand, and 7–14 elsewhere. US import duties are covered.
