Our backpack has been handmade in England using moss backed Italian suede making it impermeable to moisture and the elements, without losing the unique feel of medium temper napped suede. Carried by ergonomically shaped straps that evenly distribute weight across the shoulders, the backpack features solid brass British-cast hardware, a full-length removable wet pouch, an array of storage pockets and a padded laptop sleeve.
Materials
- Italian moss backed and treated suede exterior - Italian suede underside to shoulder straps - Solid brass hardware welded in London - 100% British cotton lining - YKK Golden brass zips
Exterior - 30cm / 11.8inch (L) x 14cm/ 5.5inch (W) x 45cm/ 17.7inch (H) Laptop pocket - Holds up to 16" laptop (inc macbook pro) The Suede Backpack has a capacity of 22 Litres & weighs 1.5kg
Care
Although the suede is treated to add protection against water, this material looks and ‘performs’ like any other premium suede. It is a natural, very malleable material so you can use your hands or a suede brush to smooth out marks and patterns that develop or of course leave them if you prefer this appearance. Having tested this material for a few years now we find allowing the bag to develop its own unique character and patina, using a brush only when it needs a clean is the best approach. We use solid brass hardware on all our bags, which will develop a more golden, understated look through regular use. If you want to clean it or prefer a shiny appearance, please use a good quality brass polish, (taking care not to apply any to the leather as this can cause discolouration). We appreciate the irony of keeping a bag inside another bag. We would however strongly advise storing your bag in the dust bag provided when not in use; you’ll thank yourself next time you hit the road with a pristine carry.
