Description
This svelt handmade briefcase messenger bag is a special piece for us, with an added emphasis on durability. Starting with the highest-quality leather (always sourced from one of the big three US suppliers), this bag is made from drum-dyed leather that is then painstakingly stuff with added oils and waxes. The resulting material not only appears deeply rich and saturated, but it is exceptionally durable on the outside, as well as the inside.
Regardless, If you are looking for a bag without straps, this is absolutely our first recommendation. With a divided gusset, minimal/hidden fasteners, and a range of size & color options, this piece is the culmination of our most requested options. And like all of our bags, the minimal styling, coupled with durable materials, makes for a lifetime purchase.
Featuring:
• 7-8oz full-grain U.S tanned English Bridle leather that is extremely durable and rigid.
• Solid brass hardware, with your choice of finish (nickel, matte nickel or solid brass)
• 1 1/4″ wide removable shoulder strap.
• Two main compartments: this bag has a divided gusset – one of our favorite features in terms of usage and aesthetic.
• Shoulder pad.
• The front flap is held down using convenient and durable tuck-locks that are hand stitch on – adding a minimal and unique detail to the bag.

Rarely, do you find a bag that matches the quality that you pay for. In this case, basader, the designer of this handcrafted masterpiece, surpassed that expectation… literally. I spent a very long time, two years of research before I settled on this basader bag. The craftsmanship on this bag is by far some of the best work I’ve seen in a lifetime. I know and love leather…The finish and treatment on his bag is shocking. I will post a video of this bag soon and will post the link on this review or to this Etsy website. Thanks, with great appreciation to “basader,” for making such a beautiful bag! Breathtaking!

I purchased this bag 3 years back. It’s wears like steel and still looks great. I travel constantly and never leave home without it.

Beyond expectations. Beautifully made and will clearly last a lifetime. Basader added custom modifications according to my request and the result is all I could have hoped for. I was looking for simple design and quality craftsmanship. An almost impossible combination to find. It is however, exactly the definition of a Basader bag.
