Introducing our Executive Range of Bespoke Leather Travelers backpacks, showcasing our newest colors: Pinotage-Red, Hunter-Green, and Marine-Blue. Our distinctive backpack is locally designed with a focus on originality, comfort, ergonomics, and durability. Each backpack can be custom-made as a commissioned piece, allowing us to collaborate with clients to perfectly meet their needs.
Every backpack is handcrafted using the finest full-grain vegetable-tanned bovine hides for the exterior and suede for the lining. The entire production process spans over 130 hours, taking two to three months to complete. We employ both traditional leatherworking techniques, such as hand-stitching (saddle stitching) and edge burnishing, alongside modern methods using sewing machines and high-quality adhesives. Our local team of skilled artisans and craftsmen (and craftswomen) creates each backpack from start to finish in our studios located in Cape Town, South Africa.
