FAQ

Find all the answers you need to enjoy our premium leather goods with confidence. Explore our FAQs to learn about our high-quality materials, easy returns, free shipping, and more.

How long do your leather bags last?

To make our leather bags, we use only the finest full grain leather, reinforced hardware and expert craftsmanship. With proper care, they’ll age beautifully and only get better over the years. Many of our customers see them as heirlooms in the making.

Do you offer a warranty or guarantee?

All our bags come with a 1-year warranty covering manufacturing defects. We’ll repair or replace your bag if anything goes wrong. Read more on our Warranty Policy.

Can I return or exchange my order?

Absolutely—we offer hassle-free returns within 30 days and exchanges are also available. We’ll make sure you end up with the right piece. Read more on our Returns Policy.

How long does shipping take, and is it free?

Your order will be processed within 1-2 days, and then delivery typically takes 2-5 days. Best of all, shipping is free to the contiguous US, UK, and Canada. Read more on our Shipping Policy.

How do I care for your leather bags?

To keep our bags looking their best, we recommend regular conditioning with a leather cream and avoiding prolonged exposure to water. For more information, read our leather care guide.

Will my device fit?

To check if your device fits any product:

1. Measure diagonally across your screen (only the screen, not the frame or edges).

2. Round down to the nearest whole inch (e.g., 15.6” becomes 15”).

3. If your measurement is equal to or smaller than the size given on the product page, your device will fit. If larger, consider a different bag size.

Example: A 14-inch laptop will fit any bag labeled for up to 15-inch devices.

Will this bag fit me?

Yes - our leather bags are designed for all body sizes, with adjustable shoulder and backpack straps available on our leather goods.

Real leather is naturally heavier, so we’ve made the straps easy to adjust for maximum comfort and effortless carrying.

Is your checkout safe and secure?

Yes—our site uses full SSL encryption and secure payment providers. We accept all major credit cards, PayPal, and pay-in-4 options.

How can I contact customer support?

Our leather experts are here to help. Reach out anytime via our contact page and we’ll get back to you quickly.

Leather Backpacks for Life

Here at The Real Leather Company, we’re passionate about making leather backpacks for men and women that are built to last longer than your old backpack.

The Rucksack offers a retro cognac leather look and its quality shoulder straps make it perfect the perfect hiking backpack.

The Standard is one of our best sellers. A premium dark brown leather laptop backpack, it works just as well at the office as on a long hike. It’s the best backpack for a 17 inch laptop pocket and it’s expandable internal organization means you can store all your gear in it’s packable pouches.

The Kobuk is our customer approved rolltop backpack. It has a large main zippered pocket and a smaller water bottle pocket, ideal for quick access items. The sternum strap keeps you comfortable, even on long hikes.

The Compact offers the best of both. It has a fine leather flap, YKK zippers and adjustable straps. It is crafted for functionality with a large main compartment inside and a laptop compartment for a 15 inch laptop. It’s also got easy access front pockets, side pockets and a soft mesh back panel.

The Traveler Backpack is our canvas daypack. The camo-style green is a unique take on a rough and ready backpack.

Vintage Leather Backpacks for the Journey

On this journey through life, we all need companions along the way. Our leather backpacks are built for the journey. Whether in the office or taking a rural break, our leather travel backpacks are crafted for both.

Our leather backpacks for men have multiple interior pockets and work great as leather laptop backpacks. Store your laptop, lunch, gym gear, headphones, clothes and more in our organized compartments. Store your wallet, cellphone, water bottle or travel tickets here so they are easy to access and grab on-the-go.

We also have a range of leather backpacks for women and you’ll find many of our backpacks are unisex appropriate. These can sometimes be referred to as tote bags or crossbody bags. The Knuckle is a clear example of this. This mini backpack is perfect for the office, but still made from our premium leather. It’s a great option to breeze through TSA checks at the airport.

We use only premium brass and alloy hardware in our rucksacks. That means the zippers, buckles and rivets are built to last - just like the premium top and full grain leather used. We stock a range of colors, including black leather backpacks and brown leather backpacks. Browse our full collection of womens backpacks and mens backpacks above.

Alternatives to Leather Laptop Backpacks

If you need a little more room for your weekend gear, take a look at our leather duffle bags. These travel bags are still small enough to make ideal carry-ons, but you’ll find duffel bags have plenty of room for all your essentials for days at a time.

If you are looking for a bag that’s just for work and needs to be a bit more formal, we recommend our leather messenger bags. These shoulder bags are still considered a casual work choice, and for most, will be suitable for the office. For short commutes with limited gear, these hands-free belt bags are a great option.

For those with more formal professions (think doctors or attorneys) our leather briefcases and trending work bags are more suitable. These laptop bags are built to show the world you are a serious professional that has truly arrived. It is the same quality leather, but crafted in a smooth way to show off your class.

If you are looking for a cross between a backpack and a briefcase, this new arrival convertible backpack is a unique option.

We also have a wide range of accessories to carry your cellphone, credit cards, and keys. Check out out our wallets and fanny packs.
