All Color: Nutmeg

Our U.S. sourced leather is incredibly easy to care for. With time and use, the natural oils in the leather will rise to the surface, developing a beautiful patina and smoothing any scuffs or scratches that may have accumulated. Learn more about caring for your new leather product.

Full Grain: Our full-grain and gently brushed leathers are among the strongest and most durable available, and the unique texture and natural imperfections from the cow’s life have not been removed. These marks are proof that the leather will become more beautiful with age.

Pebbled: Please note that our pebbled leather, like all of our leather, is a natural product. You may notice changes in grain or texture throughout your bag. Other companies artificially press a pebble texture into their leather. However, the pebbling of our leather is achieved naturally through an extra tumbling process which leaves some areas of the hide smoother than others.

      In love with another bag!

      I purchased in Nutmeg. Soft and pliable as expected. My work laptop is 12” wide, which is shown in the picture. I put my old 15” laptop in but it was extremely snug. A 14” would probably fit. There is a large inside pocket I use for papers and a smaller one I use for cords. I have no concerns with the magnets. They are very strong and have not come undone on their own. The only thing I don’t like is the flat piece on the strap. It bunches every time I put the strap on my shoulder and I can’t slide it off to put it under the strap instead. Other than that I love the bag.

      PERFECT laptop bag!!!!

      I got this bag for the days I need to go into the office after my old bag broke. It easily fit my 13” laptop with space!

      It can feel a little bit heavy, but the crossbody strap balances it well. Overall a good bag, and cute too!

      So cute!

      I like the size of this bag. Perfect for an iPad with some books or folders. Magnetic closure is perfection!

      Well I love the bag however I ordered it for my husband's birthday. He is a lawyer and I wanted it for his work. I wrote to you and asked if it fit a legal pad , you guys said yes. Well the answer is no. So anyway he can't use it. I think you guys need to make the same bag only a couple inches bigger to save me!
