Hi All,

Been contemplating getting a nice leather duffle bag/weekender and I've been looking at this company for awhile. Got this coupon code recently from an email since another bag I was looking at came back in stock. They seem to have pretty good reviews as a company overall and are more well known for their shoes. The bags themselves have few reviews online but their Aldgate briefcase seems to have a pretty comprehensive one here.

I contacted Herring Shoes and it seems the Buckland (as well as the Aldgate as mentioned in the review above) are manufactured by a UK company called Ashwood Leather. I'd assume they all are as apart from the Heritage Racing Bags their luggage offerings hasn't changed much in years. Company rep also said the leather used is full grain leather but didn't mention point of orgin. Keep in mind that because of this they're fairly heavy. The aldgate I inquired about weighed in at "just under 3kg" according to the rep. Regardless, for a full grain leather bag I'd say it's pretty cheap.

Bag GBP AUD With Shipping
Buckland Holdall £108.33 $185.60
Aldgate Briefcase £129.17 $214.60
Euston Briefcase £137.50 $226.20
Enfield Messenger Bag £91.67 $162.40
Ealing Small Travel Bag £62.50 $121.80

List above isn't comprehensive but it includes the majority of the cheaper bags, If you're interested there are some more here

    Nice bag but have you checked the dimensions as a weekender it's a little short.

  • Looks like it has nice pockerts.

    You may also consider about this one too. I bought a messenger bag from Polare. It is very sturdy, but heavy too. I quite like them so I recommend this one.

  • I have a holdall from Ashwood, good leather bag. Just make sure you are getting the right size for your needs. Mine was from Pediwear where I also bought quality leather shoes from.

    "The leather is dark tanned so it should not be worn against pale clothing as some colour transfer may occur."

    Brilliant.

  • I found this one better.. 24" goat hide full grain http://www.craftking.com.au/accessories/duffel-bags/

    Just received my Aldgate. The label clearly says "Genuine Leather" even though the chat operator told me it was full grain. I'd neg this deal if I could!

    • Damn…. I'm still waiting for my order to arrive. I honestly feel bad about it. Is it bad enough to send back ? I'd hope from their reputation they'd accept a full refund for returning it. That's such a shame, I'd fully bought into their reputable small business image.

        I'm waiting on a reply from their support.

        It doesn't look like a low quality bag, but it's not what I was sold so I'd rather get something locally that I know is full or top grain. I've seen a couple for around this price so I'll be asking for a refund personally. Also don't like being lied to in general.

      • Just got this reply:

        "Hello thank you for your enquiry,

        Yes sir it is full grain, the word ‘Genuine’ means real.

        Best Regards

        <name removed>"

        Yeah no. There's no way that's true when it comes to leather goods…

    • same. i was told it was full grain only to receive genuine leather. returning mine.
