The WWII Correspondent's Leather Satchel

This is the leather satchel reminiscent of those carried by Allied correspondents during WWII. Only available from Hammacher Schlemmer, it is inspired by the 1936 Musette Bag—the canvas carry-all that accommodated an ETO reporter’s possibles—updated for modern use with a leather exterior and an enlarged interior that accepts an iPad. The leather is analine dyed and treated with natural oils that “pulls up” the lighter grain color for a contemporary look, soft hand, and rugged durability appropriate for urban commuting. The single faux-buckled magnetic snap flap opens to reveal a cotton canvas-lined pouch that secures an iPad while a similar pocket on the opposite exterior provides additional storage. The interior features a zippered pocket and four accessory slots ideal for securing papers, pens, sunglasses, and a smartphone. With adjustable canvas shoulder strap. Brown. 12" H x 10" W x 3" D. (2 1/4 lbs.)
