Leather Briefcase Backpack for Men, Vintage Satchel with Two Buckles

This leather briefcase backpack for men is a large flap satchel in the spirit of the old schoolteacher’s bag. It is made of full-grain cowhide with a Crazy Horse finish, in a shaded dark brown. The flap closes with two leather straps passed through metal buckles. It measures 34.5 x 8.5 x 26 cm (13.6 x 3.3 x 10.2 in), give or take one to three centimeters according to the supplier.

A full-grain Crazy Horse leather

Full-grain leather keeps the natural surface of the hide. You will see shading, small wrinkles, sometimes scars or grain marks, and the color varies from one bag to the next. These are normal traits of this leather, not manufacturing defects. The Crazy Horse finish gives it an aged look from day one, and the color deepens with use.

Two buckles, a handle and a shoulder strap

The flap covers the whole front. It closes with two straps and metal buckles, and a metal button hides under the flap. A leather handle on top lets you carry the satchel by hand. An adjustable shoulder strap clips on each side with swivel hooks, which places the bag across the body.

Three ways to carry it

The supplier’s photos show the satchel carried by hand, across the body and on the back. In the last case, two leather straps attach to the rings on the back, and the satchel becomes a backpack for the day. The supplier also presents it as a dual-use model.
