Troubadour Goods Weekend Holdall

A reliable on the go bag is something every man needs in his life, and the creative team over at Troubadour goods have a stylish solution for lugging your life’s essentials from A to B, in the form of their luxurious leather weekend holdall. Former City workers Abel Samet and Samuel Bail were dismayed with the inability to find quality men’s luggage to suit the busy modern man and set about designing their own, out of which their London-based label was born. Seeking the finest craftsmen and manufacturers that specialised in their own areas of expertise, Samet and Bail assembled a precision team of artisans to create unique and beautiful products guaranteed to last a lifetime. The leather used in the manufacture of all the brand’s designs undergoes a meticulous process of refinement; the skins are tanned in aged wooden barrels in Tuscany using only natural vegetable dyes, then dried in the sun, giving the hides a luxurious, buttery-soft texture. Using these age-old methods guarantees only the finest material makes it into a Troubadour bag. The attention to detail does not stop at the leather. The zips are supplied by the highly respected Raccagni group in Italy, who have decades of experience in quality zip manufacture, whilst the thread used to stitch the bags comes from the Amman group, based in Germany, who have more than a century and a half’s experience in producing the highest-grade stitching materials. Finished off with a practical water-proof lining, each piece from Troubadour goods is representative of centuries of expertise and craft skills seamlessly brought together. With its immaculate construction and classic lines, this season’s leather weekender will make a sleek travel companion for the intrepid gent, both at home and abroad.
