You'll feel proud to own this piece of craftsmanship, or even more so giving it as a gift to a lucky recipient!

Our simple design means you can fit in all the essentials for a day of travel, be that an A5 sketchbook, disposable camera and waterbottle, or your trusty tablet, purse and diary. This backpack consists of one large inner section, with a slim internal pocket for smaller items such as your mobile or train tickets etc. The natural suede side of the leather is showcased here while also protecting your items. Secured with a tuck lock clasp under the buckle for extra security. Finished with the coloured metalwork and thread of your choice. The straps of the backpack are adjustable by using the buckles on each one, or completely remove them by simply unhooking the lobster clasps to give your bag a whole new look!

Orgill Original backpacks are not made to look perfect, they exude rustic flair with every cut, rivet and stitch created by hand. Each backpack is completely unique in this way that can never be replicated, you will see the true craftsmanship it's taken to make our bags, step out of the crowd, leave behind machine made accessories, be original with Orgill Original leather goods.

Please note each backpack is made to order and will take between 7-14 working days to be made before dispatch. If you need a bag sooner please get in touch so we can inform you of our current stock. Also note your backpack will differ slightly to those shown in the images due to the natural finish of the leather we use, this is all part of the handmade process and will make your bag even more unique to you!

Leather ages naturally over time, this is its natural patina, ingrained with all your memories and travels together. Try to avoid getting your leather wet, if it does, wipe clean with a cloth and allow to dry out naturally. If your leather begins to crack techniques such as using leather moisturisers or oils can help soften it. Be sure to test any product on a small area not easily visible as some may cause slight discolouring of your leather. Please note our hand dyed leathers may transfer colour slightly onto light coloured materials.

Colours may vary in real life due to computer screen settings.
