How to choose leather essentials

Bike saddle bag or frame bag

Both bags are cut from 2 mm top-grain cowhide, measure 17 x 11 x 3.5 cm and close with a metal buckle, with room for keys, a phone and documents, so your pockets stay empty on the ride. The difference is where they mount: the leather saddle bag is an under seat bike bag, fixed below the saddle, while the frame bag mounts on the frame.

Scissor case

A shear case for hairdressers and barbers: two pairs of shears up to 7 inches and a comb, closed by a magnet hidden under the flap. It is cut from full-grain Crazy Horse leather, which turns lighter where it bends and darkens with use.

Leather Essentials - FAQ

What are bike bags called?

They are named by where they mount. A saddle bag, also called a bike seat bag, hangs under the saddle; a frame bag fixes to the frame. Ours are both leather and the same size, 17 x 11 x 3.5 cm.

Is a leather bike bag waterproof?

No. The 2 mm cowhide keeps out dust and light splashes, but it is not waterproof: in heavy rain, keep the phone in a pocket. If the leather gets wet, let it dry at room temperature, away from direct heat.

What is a good gift for a cyclist or a hairdresser?

For a cyclist, a leather bike saddle bag or frame bag: it goes on every ride and ages with the bike. For a hairdresser or barber, the scissor case that keeps their shears together. Any piece is gift-wrapped free of charge on request.
