Buyer's Guide
Von Baer Duffel Bags. Designed for Professional Travel.
Von Baer travel bags are designed for people who value longevity, restraint, and materials that improve with age.
- We work exclusively with full-grain, vegetable-tanned Cuoio Superiore leather from Tuscany, produced using traditional methods established in 1961.
- This leather is chosen for its strength, structure, and ability to develop a rich patina over time rather than wearing out.
- Every bag is handmade by skilled European artisans using time-honoured construction techniques.
- We use solid brass hardware, reinforced stress points, and carefully finished edges to ensure your bag is built to withstand years of regular travel.
- We avoid trend-led styling and overt branding, focusing instead on balanced proportions and timeless forms that remain appropriate across business and leisure settings. Perfect for the quiet luxury aesthetic.
- We sell directly to you, without middlemen or seasonal sales. That means honest, consistent pricing and products designed to be owned for decades, not replaced after a few years.
- Each bag includes certified documentation of leather origin and is backed by a 5-year warranty, reflecting our commitment to craftsmanship, traceability, and long-term use.

- Our Men’s Leather Weekend Bag is crafted as a refined all-rounder for your short trips. It's carry-on compliant, so you can take it on a plane, and it has a structured silhouette that keeps the bag looking composed whether it’s lightly packed or full. Inside the spacious main compartment and internal pockets make organising clothing and essentials for a 2-3 day stay effortless. It features reinforced leather handles, solid brass hardware, and protective metal feet to ensure it withstands your frequent use while ageing beautifully over time.
- Our Grand Leather Garment Bag is built for when you're traveling with tailored clothing like a suit. Perfect for work travel or gym commuting. It has a dedicated zipped garment compartment to keep your suits smooth and protected, while the carry-on compliant design allows you to travel without checking luggage. The removable hanger and additional side pockets make it practical for your overnight trips, and the robust leather construction with solid brass fittings gives you reliable performance trip after trip.

How Is Von Baer Leather Different?
Not all leather is the same.
Since 2015, we at Von Baer have dedicated ourselves to high-quality real leather.
Here's a 30-second summary of how to choose a better leather product:
- Leather comes in different grades: full-grain, top-grain, and split/bonded - which represent how much of the original product is used (less product used = cheaper).
- Full-grain is the best grade of leather you can buy: exceptionally durable, developing an elegant patina, and having that beautiful real leather smell.
- Cheaper grades are less durable, age poorly, and don't have that authentic scent.
- Leather is processed through "tanning", which makes it durable and water-resistant.
- The two main methods for this are "vegetable-tanning" and "chrome-tanning".
- Chrome tanning uses harsh chemicals that are bad for the environment and produce a worse quality leather.
- Vegetable tanning is the best method, being more eco-friendly, and producing leather with a better patina and scent.
That's why here at Von Baer, we only use full-grain vegetable-tanned Italian leather, sourced from the finest tanneries across Tuscany, Italy.
It ages beautifully over time, developing a unique patina, making it more durable and luxurious than lower-quality leather.
It's also why we developed the leather standards trademark Cuoio Superiore (meaning "superior leather" in Italian).
