Product Information

Full details

The Howard London Laptop Bag Harrison is a handmade buffalo leather bag ideal for adult males who commute daily or travel frequently. Its key benefit is offering secure and organized storage for laptops up to 15 inches, thanks to its padded compartment and multiple pockets. A minor caveat is that due to its natural leather construction, it will develop a patina over time, which may alter its appearance from its original state. The bag features two main zip compartments, a back zip pocket, internal slip pockets, an adjustable/detachable shoulder strap, top handles, and brushed silver-tone hardware.

FAQs

What type of leather is used for this bag?

The bag is made from genuine handmade buffalo leather, known for its durability and natural aesthetic.

How does the 'develops a natural patina' feature work?

Over time and with use, the natural oils and exposure to the environment will cause the leather to darken and develop a unique, richer appearance. This is a sign of the leather aging gracefully and is considered a desirable characteristic.

Can I fit more than just a laptop and essential documents?

Yes, the two main zip compartments and additional pockets offer ample space for a charger, mouse, notebook, pens, phone, wallet, and other daily necessities. However, overstuffing may affect the bag's shape and comfort.

Is the shoulder strap suitable for travel?

Yes, the adjustable and detachable shoulder strap provides a comfortable and secure way to carry the bag, making it suitable for daily commutes and travel.

What are the exact dimensions of the bag?

The external dimensions of the bag are W38 x H29 x D6 cm. The internal compartment is designed to fit laptops up to 15 inches.

How should I clean the polyester lining?

For the polyester lining, you can typically wipe it with a slightly damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Ensure it dries completely before storing items inside.

Does the bag come with a dust bag?

While not explicitly stated in the product description, it is common practice for high-quality leather goods to include a dust bag for storage. We recommend using one to protect the bag when not in use.

Troubleshooting

Laptop compartment does not fit my 15-inch laptop.

Please double-check the exact dimensions of your laptop and compare them against the bag's internal dimensions (W38 x H29 x D6 cm). Some 15-inch laptops may have slightly different dimensions, especially those with larger bezels or extended batteries. The bag is designed to fit *up to* 15" laptops, meaning it's suitable for most but not all models of that screen size.

Shoulder strap feels uncomfortable or is too long/short.

The shoulder strap is adjustable between 75-125 cm. Try re-adjusting the strap length using the buckle mechanism. Ensure the buckle is securely fastened after adjustment.

Leather appears dry or lacks sheen.

The leather may require conditioning. Apply a small amount of a dedicated leather conditioner designed for buffalo leather using a soft cloth. Allow it to absorb, then buff gently.

Hardware (zippers, buckles) is stiff.

Gently test the hardware. For zippers, you can try rubbing a graphite pencil tip along the teeth to lubricate them. For buckles, ensure no debris is obstructing movement.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: This bag is designed to fit laptops up to 15 inches (W38 x H29 x D6 cm internal capacity for the main compartment). It is suitable for carrying documents, tablets, and other daily essentials.

Care: To maintain the quality of the buffalo leather:

  1. Cleaning: Wipe away dust with a soft, dry cloth. For minor marks, use a slightly damp cloth and allow it to air dry naturally. Avoid soaking the leather.
  2. Conditioning: Periodically condition the leather with a quality leather conditioner to keep it supple and prevent drying. Apply sparingly and buff off any excess.
  3. Protection: Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or extreme heat, which can dry out and fade the leather. Protect from excessive rain; if it gets wet, blot immediately with a dry cloth and let it air dry.
  4. Storage: When not in use, store the bag in its dust bag in a cool, dry place to prevent dust and maintain its shape.
