Leather Travel Essentials and Everyday Carry
What to carry, in what, and how to keep leather intact through airports, commutes and hotel floors.
Travel is a systems problem: the right containers, in the right sizes, that survive being handled by other people.
This pillar covers the whole kit; each page below goes deeper on one part of it.
Two bags, no more
A duffel or backpack plus a small document case covers almost every trip under a week.
Documents in one place
A travel wallet holding passport, boarding pass and one card removes most airport anxiety.
Protect the electronics
Padded sleeve, cable pouch, and never the laptop loose in a duffel.
Treat before departure
Protector spray and a conditioning check the week before a trip, not after.
