The dimensions are 42 x 31.5 x 12 cm. It is designed to fit laptops and documents, and typically accommodates standard 15-inch laptops, but it's always best to check specific laptop dimensions against the bag's internal measurements if possible.

Does the shoulder strap detach?

Will the leather color change over time?

Troubleshooting

Leather appears dry or dull

Apply a quality leather conditioner following the product instructions. Ensure the conditioner is suitable for vegetable-tanned leather.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move

Gently rub a graphite pencil tip or a bit of wax along the zipper teeth. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper.

Scratches on the leather surface

Minor scratches can often be buffed out with a soft cloth. For deeper scratches, use a leather balm or cream specifically designed for color-matched repairs or to blend the scratch.

Strap adjustment hardware is loose

Check that the buckle or slider mechanism is properly engaged with the strap. If the hardware is damaged, consider seeking a repair from a leather goods specialist.
