Description

A full-grain leather backpack built for the office

This men's leather backpack is cut from full-grain cowhide leather and structured to hold its shape through the workweek. A single front zip pocket keeps small items close at hand, while the main compartment stays open and organized for everything else.

The clean, structured silhouette reads as professional rather than sporty, making it as much at home in a boardroom as it is on the morning train.

Will it fit a laptop and your daily essentials?

Yes, the main compartment includes a laptop sleeve sized for laptops up to 14 inches, along with a top zip pocket and slip pockets for a pen, a wallet, and a small notebook.

Everything has a place, so you are not digging through one big pocket to find your charger or your keys.

Comfortable enough for the daily commute

Adjustable shoulder straps distribute the load evenly, and a leather top handle lets you grab the bag by hand for a quick trip from the car to the elevator.

The slim profile moves easily through train aisles and crowded sidewalks without feeling bulky on your back.

A leather backpack that ages with you

Full-grain leather develops a natural patina with everyday use, so this backpack looks more lived-in and personal the longer you carry it.

Care & use

Keeping the leather looking its best

Wipe the leather down with a soft, dry cloth to clear away daily dust and light marks. If it picks up a spot on the commute, use a barely damp cloth and let it air dry away from direct heat.

Conditioning for the long run

Apply a quality leather conditioner every few months to keep the hide supple, especially through dry winter months. Test any product on a hidden area first.

Packing it right for daily use

Load the main compartment before the front pocket so the bag keeps its shape against your back. Slide your laptop into the sleeve last, flat against the panel, to keep it from shifting during the day.

Smart storage between uses

When you are not carrying it, store the backpack upright in a cool, dry spot away from direct sunlight. Keep it lightly filled rather than empty so the leather does not crease or lose its shape.

Best briefcase/backpack combo bag

“I was looking for a casual yet professional style, fully functional briefcase-type bag that could double as a backpack for short trips. And Hartley had just the bag for me. I love it! It's perfect and just what I needed. Its smart design has all the pockets I need plus backpack straps that fold into their own pocket when not in use. Genius! Thanks Hartley!”

Jeff B. US Oct 9, 2026

Loved the bag!!

“Loved the bag!!! Beautiful quality and a great price point!
Also the team reached out to me prior to shipping to say the color of the bag they had was different from what was pictured and they even sent me a photo of the actual bag they were going to ship to see if I still wanted to go ahead with it!
No one does that these days, that’s real customer service!
Thanks so much Hartley bags and Emily for your real care and beautiful products!”
