RARE VINTAGE 1980's BROWN SOFT BOMBER JACKET LEATHER LAPTOP BRIEFCASE BAG R$698
Our bags are the antidote for the poly lined synthetic leather bags being produced for even really good upscale companies in China. Most of our bags are full-grain leather. Artisan craft, authentic distressed character, and many with modifications unique to our line. We only use high grade belts for straps reminiscent of equestrian leather halter straps and half centimeter thick mooseskin. Nothing wimpy here; quality and character that stands out and stands the test of a truly rugged life-style.
Invest in a bag that you'll love more and more over time. Not all leather bags are created the same. A great quality leather bag is supposed to look better with time as the leather acquires marks and age related wear.
My philosophy and writing descriptions is: a picture speaks 1000 words. So please look at the pictures and email me with any questions. That said, here is my description.
Fully reconditioned and ready for a new adventure. What I love about this briefcase is the soft leather. It reminds me of a broken in bomber jacket from World War II. Metal brass colored hardware. I imagine someone like a college student or an IT professional who appreciates the rugged and vintage look taking this to a meeting. It is sure to get comments and compliments. It is unlined leather; this is very rare these days. Most high-end department store briefcase brands line their bags with poly nylon cloth these days. It is really rare to find a bag at upscale retailers that is unlined. In my opinion; unlined is so much better and lasts so much longer.
Back in the 70s, the Lion Leather Products Company was one of the best bag makers. The quality tapered off in the 80s. It's really rare to find one from the 70s, that is why they are so coveted when found.
One characteristic that I really like is the seamless bottom and side sections. Most bags use 3 pieces of leather and have seams sewn on the bottom two corners; not this one!. It also has two heavy-duty vinyl dividers great for putting your iPad Pro 12.9 or 10.5 as the thinner board (My iPad Pro 12.9 sizing board shows) shows in photos 8 and 9.
As show in the photos: This bag fits my mock-up wooden MacBook Pro 2017 with the measurements of 13.75" x 9.48" x Thickness 0.61" It may fit a bit larger laptop so please contact me if you want me to measure for your specific laptop.
You could easily take two iPad Pro 12.9s or any iPad size along with a MacBook with the cords and other gear in the middle. Great simple bag with a retro quality look.
I imagine someone like a college student or an IT professional who appreciates the rugged and vintage look taking this to a meeting. It is sure to get comments and compliments. It is unlined leather; this is very rare these days. High-end Bag designers line their bags with poly nylon cloth these days. It is really rare to find a bag at upscale retailers that is unlined. In my opinion; unlined is so much better and lasts so much longer.
The measurements are approximately: 15x11x3.5 inches
I have this listed as a Men's bag but any woman who appreciates rugged leather goods could make this work for that perfect rugged look.
This beautiful bag comes from a smoke free home and Minnetonka Minnesota. If you live local please contact me if you're interested in local pick up and saving on shipping.
