The Saddler's Briefcase in Cocoa Leather

$1,250.00

The Briefcase will become one of your iconic pieces, transcending the journey of work and corporate needs.

We are pleased to present a new Heirloom Edition to our range, The Saddler’s Briefcase. From the city boardroom to country plains, this piece is made for traversing further afield.

The leather Briefcase will become a familiar companion, melding to the nature of life travels and flying trips. This is a premium, full grain leather bag designed to hang by your side or carried handheld with ease.

The Saddler‘s Briefcase is a piece that stands out. So named because of the style of briefcase made traditionally by those of the Saddler’s trade. The craftsman's knowledge is essential to the end result. There is a balance between rugged construction and refined simplicity in this design, with all the leather sides and panels having been doubled and reinforced. Solid brass Saddler‘s “rivet and burr” rivet hardware feature as the failsafe, as these will never wear or break.

Adorned with low-set “whole” rectangle brass buckles, the classic front face of the bag has such comeliness that it catches one’s eye on the street. The box-like form of the Briefcase has a beauty and structural appeal which guarantees the owner will always look sharp and at their finest.

  • Made in Dubbo, Australia
  • Constructed from hand selected, premium cuts of Australian leather hides
  • Protects your valuable laptop, devices, books and papers.
  • Full leather zip compartment, accessible from back of the Briefcase 
  • Front leather flap is reinforced by double leather lining, secured with two solid brass buckles
  • Briefcase interior is completely lined with full grain leather and full leather box gusset construction, for durability and long term strength
  • Hand crafted carry handle, made from multiple layers of leather, firmly riveted in place to ensure handle safety and long term structure
  • Leather carry strap is constructed of full grain leather, double lined, stitched, solid brass buckle and brass clips which can detach from the case. 
  • Features an adjustable leather shoulder pad for comfortable wearing.
  • A statement of simplicity, minimalist style, and the character of leather itself. 
  • To care for this leather, we recommend using a small amount of leather conditioner every six months to maintain the supple finish. 

For heirloom items such as the Saddler’s Briefcase, only the cleanest and best leather pieces are chosen. Nevertheless, the briefcase will not be dull nor void of nuance. The material has already developed a character all of its own. It comes with its own story, ready to join you, every step of the way. 

    Maker’s Notes: 

    Made under the instruction of our Saddler’s team in the Dubbo workshop. This fine piece of craftsmanship will be your faithful and proud companion for many years to come. Each piece is selected and cut from Australian full grain leather hide, before sewing each bag using traditional methods, always in small batches. 

    Each briefcase is an investment in the quality of knowledgeable leather design and skills of a maker. Destined to be thoroughly utilised within many touchpoints of the day to day work life, a joy to be experienced by those seeking an authentic piece.

    Use

    Varied corporate and everyday use. Well suited to the daily commute, with a removable strap for ease of using the Saddler‘s briefcase in the way that suits you best - whether slung over the shoulder, or by your side in a trustworthy manner.
    There is the comfort of security knowing the bag is finished with brass buckles, while yet still accessible to the wearer.
