The leather feels rich and solid in hand. After a full week of use, it already feels like a bag I will keep for years.

Wipe the leather with a soft, dry cloth to keep it clean and free of dust. For marks, use a slightly damp cloth and let the bag dry naturally, never near direct heat.
Feed the leather with a conditioner once or twice a year to keep it supple. Between uses, fill it lightly with paper and keep it in its dust bag so it holds its shape and colour.

Every panel is cut by hand from the hide, the traditional way. Steady hands, sharp knives and years at the table guide each line before a single stitch goes in.

Each backpack starts with hides we pick ourselves: thick, honest leather that ages well and takes on a richer patina with every journey. No shortcuts, just material that has proven itself over time.
