FAQ:
  • What is special about the American Bison leather?

    • This type of leather is quite unique. It has a distinctive grain—it’s one of a kind and quite desirable. Artisans and manufacturers go to great lengths to protect its appearance. To preserve this feature, the hides are not stretched during the tanning process. And because they’re not stretched as much as cow hide, the bison is thicker, more durable, and stronger. Organic materials are used during the tanning process. Your Executive Leather Laptop Briefcase will stay looking beautiful for a long time, and it will not look like anyone else's.

  • What is special about the Chocolate rugged full grain leather?

    • Full-grain leather has a super tight grain so it resists moisture very well, and it's strong and durable. This is the best, and most expensive part of the cowhide. Each hide has its own unique marks, a sign that it's the real thing. The leather develops a beautiful patina that adds to the bag's character over time. The more you use your Executive Leather Laptop Briefcase, the better it will look.

  • Why use a gold liner?

    • First, the liner adds a bit of protection for the different items you carry inside. Second, we chose gold because this lighter, brighter color makes it easier to quickly see the contents inside your pouch.

  • How do you suggest I clean the leather?

    • Actually, we suggest not doing anything. The beauty of the Heritage Brown distressed leather is that it develops its own character as it gets used over time— incorporating rainspots and the occassional dings from getting bumped around. Leather conditioners may darken and alter the leather, perhaps not something you desire. If at some point you want to condition the leather - we suggest using mink oil. This will darken a bit at first— but will keep the leather very nice. You can also spread the oils around and smooth them out a bit with heat from a hair dryer.

    Any leather dis-coloration or marks are straight from the actual hide itself; it's part of its character. This is how you know it’s the real thing. Each hide has it own, unique look.

I’ve been searching for the right briefcase for 5 years and finally took a leap of faith and got the bison leather version. Very happy with it! Looks great, is functional and has the feel of something that’s going to last a lifetime.

Beautifully crafted briefcase A+

I purchased the black bison leather briefcase and I couldn’t be happier with it. The craftsmanship is top notch. It’s obvious that the bag will last for a while - the hide is soft but thick and durable. Oddly enough, my favorite part about the bag is the zipper, which is enclosed to be protected from outside elements.

Gary and Jasmine were prompt to answer a couple of questions I had and they were accommodating.

I would recommend Waterfield to anyone looking for eye catching style and superior craftsmanship.

Beautiful bag

This bag wasn’t really something I needed, it was something I wanted even though it was not the most practical choice for my situation. However, I love it. Love the way it smells and how much it holds without feeling bulky. And while I’m a bit protective of it now, it feels solid and will probably last a very long time. If I had an issue with it, it would be that the opening is a bit awkward, particularly if you have a large laptop. If you could make a version with a Gladstone opening it would be perfect.
