Care
Caring For Your Leather
Wipe with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust. For marks or stains, use a damp cloth with mild soap, then let air dry. Avoid direct heat sources.
Keep in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. To help bags maintain their shape, fill with tissue paper or soft cloth and store upright. Avoid sealing leather in plastic bags for extended periods - the material needs airflow.
Apply quality leather conditioner every few months to maintain suppleness and prevent cracking.

Thomas B.
Great work bag
Very well made.
Richard C.
Good size for the office
I carry a notebook, documents, charger, and a few small things most days. The Clinton holds all of it without feeling oversized.
Kevin D.
Finally replaced my backpack
I had been bringing a backpack to the office for years because it was practical, but I never liked taking it into meetings. The Clinton feels like a better fit for how I work now. It still carries the things I need for a normal day, but the structured shape and leather look much more professional. The top handle is also surprisingly handy when I am moving between conference rooms.
Steven G.
Nice leather
Feels substantial.
Brian H.
Comfortable on the commute
The shoulder strap adjusts easily and the bag sits close enough to my side that it does not feel awkward on the train.
Eric M.
Clean, professional look
The flap front is simple and the bag has enough structure to look neat even when I am not carrying much.
Charles P.
Just right
Not too bulky.
Robert S.
Interior pockets help
I like having a place for smaller items so my charger, glasses, and keys are not loose in the main compartment.
Mark T.
A good lighter work setup
I used to carry a larger briefcase even on days when I barely needed half of it. I went with the Small Clinton and it makes much more sense for me. There is still room for my normal work essentials, but the bag is easier to carry and does not feel excessive when I am just going to the office for a few hours.
Paul M.
Looks sharp
Good for meetings.
Christopher R.
A little stiff at first
The leather and strap were firmer than I expected during the first week. Both have softened with regular use and the bag is more comfortable now.
Daniel L.
Top handle is useful
I wear it on my shoulder most of the time, but the handle is convenient when I am getting in and out of the car.
Joseph N.
Good organization
The inside pockets are simple but useful. I can keep the smaller things separate without having too many compartments.
Michael K.
Very happy
Exactly what I wanted.
David B.
Has aged nicely
I have had mine for more than a year and the leather looks better now than when it arrived. The areas I handle most have darkened slightly and there are a few natural marks, but nothing looks worn out. The hardware still feels solid and the bag has kept its shape. I prefer this kind of aging to leather that stays looking brand new.
Timothy F.
Good everyday carry
It is easy to grab for work and does not feel overly formal outside the office either.
Patrick C.
Solid construction
Stitching and hardware both feel dependable.
Jeffrey M.
Large size works for me
I chose the Large because I wanted a little more room for documents and the things I carry on longer days. It still feels balanced on the shoulder.
Andrew S.
Professional without being stiff
That is the best way I can describe it. It looks appropriate in a meeting, but it still has a relaxed leather messenger feel. I wear business casual most days and it fits in better than the hard briefcase I used before.
Stephen H.
Worth it
Using it every week.
Anthony G.
Slightly heavier than expected
It has more weight than my old fabric messenger, which makes sense given the leather and hardware. Once I adjusted the strap properly it was not an issue.
Matthew P.
Good for client days
I like having a bag that does not look too casual when I am meeting clients. The Clinton has been a good middle ground.
Jonathan D.
Leather is breaking in well
It started fairly firm but has softened around the flap and handle with use. The shape still looks tidy.
Scott P.
Simple and practical
Really like this. You can tell it’s going to look better once it’s been used for a while too.
Jason M.
A useful business trip bag
I took the Clinton on a short trip to Dallas and used it as my work bag once I arrived. It was comfortable enough to carry between meetings, held the things I needed during the day, and looked appropriate in a professional setting. I left my larger travel bag at the hotel and never felt like I was missing anything.
Jeremy R.
Good commuter bag
Much easier to manage than my old oversized briefcase.
Samuel B.
Nice natural finish
Mine has slight variation in the leather, which gives it more character than a perfectly uniform bag.
Aaron C.
Plenty for a normal workday
Documents, notebook, charger, wallet, and a few smaller items all fit comfortably without turning it into a heavy catch-all.
Adam F.
Would like one quick-access pocket
The interior organization works well, but I would personally add one exterior pocket for something I need quickly. Otherwise I have been very pleased.
Nathan H.
Good balance
Structured but not too formal.
Shawn M.
Feels dependable
After several months, the handle, strap attachments, stitching, and hardware all still feel secure.
Corey P.
My daily office bag
The layout is straightforward and I do not have to think about where everything goes. It has become the bag I grab most mornings.
Carlos B.
Good replacement for a softer messenger
My previous bag sagged badly when it was not full. The Clinton keeps a cleaner shape and looks more appropriate for work.
Luis M.
Very well made
Feels like it should last.
Rajesh P.
Color was a little darker in person
The leather looked slightly lighter on my screen. I still like the richer tone and it has grown on me with use.
Susan C.
Bought it for my husband
He wanted something more professional than his old backpack but did not want a traditional hard briefcase. He has been using the Clinton several days a week and likes the top handle and shoulder strap combination. The leather is already starting to soften and the bag looks less stiff than it did when it first arrived.
George R.
Nice for business casual
Works well with chinos, a sport coat, or jeans. I like that it does not force me into one look.
Henry M.
Good value for me
I compared several leather messengers before ordering and this had the structured shape and simple work-focused design I wanted.
Jack B.
Comfortable for walking
The strap sits well and the bag does not swing around much when I am moving between buildings.
Tony C.
A simple design that works
I do not need a bag with twenty compartments. The Clinton gives me a spacious main section, enough interior organization for smaller items, a useful top handle, and a shoulder strap that makes commuting easy. After months of regular use, it still feels sturdy and the leather has developed more character without losing its structure.
