A leather drawstring backpack in three sizes. The hide is embossed with our monogram pattern before a single panel is cut, so the pattern lands differently on every bag.

Size & Fit
  • 18 in — 18 × 9 × 7 in
  • 20 in — 20 × 10 × 8 in
  • 22 in — 22 × 10 × 9 in
  • Holds a 13 to 15 in laptop depending on the size chosen
  • Engraved monogram, up to three initials, included
The Leather

Full-grain hide, embossed before cutting. The grain shifts across the hide and the depth of the emboss shifts with it, so every backpack leaves the workshop with a pattern of its own.

Hardware & Construction

Antique brass, solid through, on the buckles, rivets and strap hardware.

The main compartment closes by drawstring under a buckled flap, so the top gives a little when you pack it generously.

What It Holds

A 13 to 15 in laptop depending on the size chosen, with a charger, a bottle, a jacket and the day’s essentials around it.

The 18 in suits a light day, the 20 in a full one, and the 22 in an overnight.

Care

A dry cloth for dust, with a leather conditioner two or three times a year. The emboss deepens as the hide darkens.

Questions

Which size should I choose?
The 18 in for a light day, the 20 in for a full one, and the 22 in when you are staying overnight.

Will the pattern match the photographs?
The pattern is embossed into each hide before cutting, so yours will be arranged uniquely to your bag.

How does it close?
By drawstring, under a buckled leather flap.

Is the monogram included?
Yes. Choose your initials at checkout and they are engraved into the leather before the bag leaves the workshop.
