In this video I discuss the main qualities that you want to look for before purchasing a leather weekender.
I'll be using the Beckett Simonon Davis Weekender bag to illustrate 5 important qualities that you want to look for in a leather weekend bag.
But first, let's answer what is a weekender bag, and when and why to use one.
WHAT IS A WEEKENDER BAG?
A weekender bag, also known as an overnight bag or duffel bag, is ideal for when you don't quite need a suitcase, but more carrying space than a traditional backpack. It's the perfect size for a weekend trip (2-3 days).
WHEN & WHY USE A WEEKENDER BAG
A weekender bag is a great choice for a short trip of a few days. It's more stylish than a wheeled carry-on suitcase and takes up less space, but has all the room you need for a couple of outfits, an extra pair of shoes, toiletries, etc.

Awesome... But What is the measurement of the bag that we can buy?

[@geestaboy5284]

Leather has character. Does it also have feelings?

[@gentwithin]

depends who you ask.

[@btroupe4371]

Couldn't find anything I liked so I made mine

[@gentwithin]

nice. you a leather craftsman?

[@claus.vkohler7014]

Do they ship to the EU?

[@gentwithin]

not sure

[@amromarie9678]

how to order

[@gentwithin]

directly on their website. the link is in the description..

[@ROTORHEADPR]

Can't even fit my shoes in there but cute purse indeed.

[@gentwithin]

that'd be a big ass purse then.

[@Corndog4382]

Bro what are you talking about? You wouldn’t want the bag any bigger for a weekend.

[@ROTORHEADPR]

@@Corndog4382 👍 ill just make sure I go somewhere I can use the same pair of shoes I have on

[@spbynum]

YKK zippers is the minimum you want. RiRi is the ideal.

[@gentwithin]

depends, but yes they're both quality.

[@spbynum]

Gentleman Within Forgive me, but it does not depend. YKK hardware is great. You should never settle for less than that. However, if YKK is the Toyota of the hardware world with its popularity and durability, RiRi is the Cadillac of that same world. It’s obviously more expensive, but if you can afford it, you’ll never go back. And you can also rest assured that a bag is one of the best when you see the RiRi hardware on it. Look at any Frank Clegg bag, for example.

[@MXCNgoku]

You are misinformed on the leather, Full grain is the top grain meaning it hasn't been sanded or buffed, it still has the natural texture and grain, top grain has been sanded and buffed, full grain is much thicker than top grain and has natural strength and durability from the full grain, full grain is not the top grain removed from a top grain or anything, it is quite literally the full hide with all grains, where as top has been sanded or in some cases split from the full grain

[@spicecrop]

Keep your passport on your person people. They are a bitch to replace when lost or stolen on a trip. And all the potential problems of some stranger running around with your passport and name. Good tips on leather bags.

[@gentwithin]

Ideally, yes...but the pockets are there to quickly stash it away temporarily. I agree though and would say to keep it on yourself at all times, preferably in a secured zip pocket.

[@almorabe4033]

do you kung fu? in case somebody at the TSA wants to own your leather bag😊
