Our Lead-time

As a small team, and because we make every bag by hand, our lead-time can sometimes be exceptionally long. However, while our production time isn’t anything to brag about, we can assure you the results are breathtaking.

Our current lead-time 2-3 weeks for our bags, and 1-2 weeks for accessories (updated Aug. 2023). Still, we kindly ask that you keep our lead-time in mind before placing an order — we know it’s difficult to wait so long, but in quality and uniqueness, we truly believe a lifetime bag trumps the anticipation (our goal being, to make sure you agree!). If you need your order sooner, please contact us before placing your order at info@basader-09082022.mystagingwebsite.com.

Please also note that we are now keeping many of our most popular bags in the Ready-To-Ship section, and these orders will go out within 2-3 business days.

We are happy to offer worldwide shipping. But please keep in mind that your country of residence may charge customs fees on US parcels. We have no control over such fees, nor do we know what they are for each country, so please check with your local post office before ordering if you have concerns. Depending on the destination,  but they typically arrive within 3-10 business days.

If you are curious as to how much your country will charge in customs fees/VAT, we recommend using this (unassociated) “Duty Calculator”. In our experience, it is not always exact, but it does provide an accurate ballpark figure. If you do plan to use this tool, simply set section number 2, “Product Type” to the settings seen below.

Image Above: The duty calculator, a great tool for estimating import taxes and fees that will be charged to you by your country of residence.

Customization

Do we customize…it’s one of our most commonly asked questions. Yes, it has become one of our niches over the years. Read more about our customization on our custom page/ Some possible examples include:

Longer Bags

We’re happy to say that architects make up a disproportionate percentage of our clientele. So longer bag requests are not uncommon. Extending a bag 1 or 2″ longer is not a very difficult task, however, finding prime leather pieces at this size become exponentially more difficult to source. With this in mind, feel free to inquire if you are in need of a larger design.
Adding an additional inch to the length of a bag: $30 per inch

Inner-Panel Laptop Pocket

While we offer a lot of “gusseted” bag types (a bag with an inner divider, as seen below), we still get a lot of requests for an additional inner laptop pocket on the back inner-panel. Like us, most of our customers sport a very thin laptop, so we understand the request. If you’re interested in an inside laptop-specific sleeve, please contact us with you laptop size before placing your order (this option is not always possible).
Inner-Panel Laptop Sleeve Cost: $30

Wider / Thinner Bag

If you require a thinner or wider bag, let us know. We might warrant against bag widths that we consider to be too wide / uncomfortable, but otherwise, we might be able to extend or take in a bag about 1″.
Wider / Thinner Bag: Typically $15

If you are interested in one of these modifications, please contact us.
