We designed the LOST WORLDS
HORSEHIDE COURIER BAG to provide our characteristic durability and benchmark
build in a multi-featured carryall of exceptional style and beauty for any
occasion. Using materials and hardware that exceed anything virtually at any
price for exclusivity and strength. Made of course by us at our own NYC factory.
It doesn't look like any other leather bag because it isn't like any other bag.
Masculine, rugged and refined to levels of hipness the flavor-of-the-month
trendy bags can't touch. And at a great Introductory price too.

How It's Built
(1) Shell and interior "Holster" Pocket constructed
of genuine LOST WORLDS chrome-tanned Russet Brown or Black Front Quarter
AMERICAN HORSEHIDE. For which we're renowned. The toughest, highest-performing
hides anywhere, with terrific water and abrasion resistance. And gorgeous grain,
unmatched anywhere. The performance leather of choice since frontier days, now
practically non-existent.
(2) Handles/Sides/Base/Adjustable Belt/Loops of
genuine vegetable-tanned AMERICAN HORSE BUTT -- the
identical leather in $600+ Shell Cordovan Shoes like Alden. As tough as any
leather ever made.
(3) Genuine NOS Coats & Clark (Crown) #9 Brass
Zipper. The best designed and operating zippers ever, dating to 1960s. Peerless
action and jewel-like machining. Sought after by collectors. Genuine NOS Scovill
Brass #45 Pocket Zipper, dating to 1960s. As good as it gets. No Asian zippers
on this gem -- and the zippers are intrinsic to the performance. American
through and through.
(4) 15 oz. 100% Cotton Duck Lining. Ultra-strong yet
comfortable to use.

Uses
Start with a computer, then go to anything else,
business or casual. Legal or, uh, illegal? Although it has great looks it's a
beast for punishment. You can't hurt it. The Horse Butt framing won't nick,
scratch or scrape. Holds a ton of stuff. We tossed in a laptop, aluminum digital
camera case and two hardbound books with room to spare.
Great for travel and highly secure. A functional masterpiece
that will endure as family heirloom and have you answering questions wherever
you go because it's unique, pure and simple, and the workmanship and detailing
are, well, LOST WORLDS. Enough said. The older it gets, the more beautiful its
patina of use -- yet, unlike other leather bags, LW Horsehide never loses
strength with use and age or rubs out and bleaches. Why this hide has always been sought after by
cognoscenti and those who can't abide failure in the name of fashion. This is
STYLE, not fashion -- masculine, not poseur. Kirk Douglas (and cleft), not
Nicholas Cage! Yet it's not misogynistic -- women can equally share in its
charms.
