Men’s Leather Satchel Bags
Men?s Leather Satchel Bags
Our top pick satchel a utilitarian design with some of the best leather we found for a messenger bag. It’s a great choice for guys who need a bag that can handle their day-to-day commute, while keeping up with a busy life. This bag is a little bigger than the other picks, and its exterior pockets can be closed to keep items secure. It also features a padded laptop sleeve that can fit devices up to 13 inches, and zippered and open pockets for things like writing utensils and cords. Its interior is a smart mix of form and function, with a divider running down the middle to separate items like cords from electronics, which can get messy quickly.
The only drawbacks to this bag are that it’s unlined, and the raw edges don’t get rolled, burnished, or finished, which might make it feel less luxurious to a guy who prefers a more refined look. However, the raw edges are a cost-saving measure (plus Saddleback says it’s done to show that the leather has been tanned all the way through), and we think they work well with the bag’s rugged aesthetic.
This bag is made in Mexico, and it’s a good option for guys who want a rugged messenger bag that can withstand the elements. It’s the most expensive of our picks, but it has a lifetime warranty and it looks great (we tested one that was 11 years old and still in excellent shape). It’s also chrome tanned, which means it won’t age as nicely as veg tanned bags, but it can still be worn for a long time without looking worn out.
