A working briefcase in saddle-grade calfskin. Fits a 15-inch laptop, a folio, and the morning paper. Brass hardware that lasts. Crafted in Calfskin.

Specifications

  • Italian saddle calfskin
  • Solid brass hardware
  • Fits 15" laptop + folio
  • Suede-lined interior
  • Double-rolled handle

An old client — a barrister in London — once told us he had carried the same briefcase for thirty-one years and would carry it for ten more. We made the L'Executif with him in mind. The leather is vegetable-tanned in Tuscany, the hardware solid brass cast in Birmingham. The handle is double-rolled and stitched with bonded linen thread. Thirty-one years is a starting estimate.

  • — Wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth after wear.
  • — Condition every 3–6 months with a neutral leather balm.
  • — Store on a wide hanger, away from direct sunlight and humidity.
  • — Avoid prolonged contact with rain; blot — never rub — if wet.
  • — Professional leather cleaning only.

Complimentary worldwide shipping on every order. Express delivery within 3–5 business days, fully tracked and insured.

The Story

A piece chosen
to outlast trends.

An old client — a barrister in London — once told us he had carried the same briefcase for thirty-one years and would carry it for ten more. We made the L'Executif with him in mind. The leather is vegetable-tanned in Tuscany, the hardware solid brass cast in Birmingham. The handle is double-rolled and stitched with bonded linen thread. Thirty-one years is a starting estimate.

  • Hand-finished in Sialkot

    Edges, hardware and lining set by one artisan, by name.

  • Full-grain, traceable hides

    From two heritage tanneries we have visited for years.

  • Lifetime promise

    Repaired, reconditioned and restored — for as long as you wear it.

In Detail

The marks of the hand.

The Hide

Full-grain, unaltered.

We work only with the top layer of the hide — the part that carries the natural grain, the small scars, the irregularities that announce a piece is real.

The Stitch

Saddle-stitched, by hand.

Two needles, one thread, drawn through every hole the artisan has pierced. It is slow, and it does not unravel — even if a stitch is cut.
