Travel Style: Looking Composed After Six Hours
Travel leather has to survive floors, overhead bins and rain while still working on arrival.
Travel is the hardest environment leather faces outside of manual work.
Choose forgiving surfaces
Pebble grain and crazy horse hide airport abrasion; smooth black shows every scuff.
One bag, one small case
A duffel plus a travel wallet handles most trips without a second personal item.
Dark tones travel better
Cognac and dark brown mask marks and coordinate with more clothing.
