Feature by feature

Every pocket has a job.

Effortless organisation

The front opens flat to an organiser, with a place for cables, the charger, pens and keys, so small things stop living at the bottom of the bag.

Compact, yet spacious

A padded 15.3 × 10.2 in sleeve with a velcro strap holds a 16" MacBook Pro. The main compartment takes the documents, a tablet, a bottle and the lunch.

Rides on your suitcase

The trolley sleeve on the back slides over a roller's handle, so the suitcase carries the briefcase through the airport.

Comfortable all day

Water beading on the Alto's brown nylon twill

Made for the walk in

Water-resistant nylon twill sheds the rain, and full-grain leather handles, trim and front pocket take the wear where your hands go.

Materials

Leather where your hands go. Nylon where the rain goes.

1Full-grain leather where you hold it. Handles, trim and the front pocket: the parts you touch every day, in leather that takes the wear.
2Water-resistant nylon twill body. It sheds a shower on the walk in and wipes clean.
33.3 lb empty. Light enough that the laptop is the heaviest thing in it.
