Weekend bag

A weekend bag is one that’s big enough to carry all your essentials without being bulky or heavy. As the name suggests, it’s designed for short trips, usually around two or three days (more if you’re efficient with your packing). They’re smaller and more compact than suitcases, making them easy to carry and store.

You can pick them up in pretty much every fabric, colour or style, from classic leather duffel bags to modern, lightweight nylon options that easily fit in the boot of your car or the overhead lockers on your next flight. They usually have comfy shoulder straps or handles for easy carrying.

When choosing a weekend bag, consider the length of your trip and the activities you’ll be doing. They’re designed to hold your essentials, so be organised when you pack and think about what you can wear for more than one occasion.

Washbag

A washbag, also known as a toiletry bag, is a small (usually waterproof) bag with a zip to carry, store and organise your personal grooming items. They’re usually made of durable materials like leather, canvas or nylon and they’re designed to be portable and protect the rest of your luggage from leaks or damage. It also means you can easily find what you’re looking for in your case or bag, too.

Our take is crafted from a luxurious grained black leather with an exterior handle for carrying ease. It’s a smart way to store your personal items and adds a touch of refinement to any luggage set up.

Moss - black grained leather backpack

Backpack

Whether you’re heading up to see family or popping to a friend’s for a weekend, it’s time to upgrade the old backpack you’ve been carrying around for years. The ideal size for all your essentials, grained leather backpack is crafted from a sleek grained leather and is smart and minimal enough for work use too. With thick comfortable leather straps and a mesh panel in the back for breathability, it’s a travelling essential you won’t ever want to leave at home.

Work bag

Though many favour the backpack, a work bag can be anything that holds your essentials in. Whether it’s your laptop, tools, samples or something else completely, the biggest things to look out for are quality, durability and comfort.

You also want to make sure that it’s big enough for everything you need; trying to cram your essentials into a bag that just isn’t big enough is no fun. Make sure you have straps that are big enough to distribute the weight of your work bag, and if you’re heading to the office, that it’s smart enough to go with the rest of your workwear.

Our grained leather briefcase is a modern take on the more traditional hard briefcase. Perfectly sized to fit your laptop and any important documents, it still feels relatively compact and has a detachable strap so you can wear it on one shoulder should you need to.

Moss - black saffiano leather premium suit carrier

Suit carrier

Whether you’re travelling to an event, a wedding or taking a suit into work, you need a suit carrier to keep your suit neat and free of creases when you arrive at your destination. It’s the difference between looking crumpled or looking stylish on arrival. You can use them over and over again, too. Ours is slightly elevated with it’s saffiano leather trim and embossing, with plenty of storage for your accessories too.

Gym bag

This style of bag is the right size and fit for all of your gym gear or sportswear, whether that’s joggers, a football kit or your trainers. It also means you can keep your gym kit separate from your work gear or anything else you might not want to get covered in mud or sweat.

Choose a bag with enough space, and keep your toiletries in a separate washbag to skip any leaks and stay feeling fresh.
