Pinotage Travel Backpack


Introducing our Pinotage Bespoke Backpack, a highlight of our executive travel luggage collection.

This exclusive backpack, crafted locally by our team, emphasizes originality, comfort, ergonomics, and durability. You can order each backpack as a custom commission, allowing us to work closely with you to fulfill your specific needs. Every backpack is handcrafted using premium full-grain vegetable-tanned bovine leather for the exterior and suede for the interior lining. We provide a range of color options for you to choose from.


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.
