Messenger003

Handmade to order by Charles in London. 10 units available only. Delivery in July 2026.

Smart inside and out, this durable 6.5L messenger is designed to keep up with a fast-paced lifestyle whilst looking effortlessly refined. A removable stabiliser strap ensures a secure and stable carry, with an efficient and effective pocket configuration keeping your essentials organised, easily accessible, and always protected, thanks to the weather-resistant magnetically secured flap. Combining proven manufacturing techniques for heavy wear with design details such as our proprietary magnet modules to replace the need for limited lifespan components, this is a one of a kind messenger.

Technical materials throughout, we're using a combination of Challenge Sailcloth EPLX 840 lower, EPLX 600re/cor upper. Lined with GridStop, a lightweight ripstop reinforced with ultra high molecular weight polyethylene fibres, bead blasted Wingback and Austrialpin hardware highlight the design, and closed cell foam and SRPP shock protection keep your valuables secure. Full grain leather, military spec nylon webbing and all metal hardware provide the finishing details. This bag is designed for heavy use and guaranteed for life.
