The Heritage is not just a bag, but a symbol of professionalism recognized by peers and clients alike.

Worth knowing before you buy

The hardware is solid brass, not plated. It will dull and patina rather than stay mirror-bright — some people polish it, we don't.

Care and repair

Wipe dust off with a dry, soft cloth before it works into the grain.
If it gets soaked, blot it and let it dry away from radiators and direct sun.
Condition twice a year with a neutral cream — a pea-sized amount per panel, buffed in.
Scratches on full grain usually burnish out under a warm thumb. Try that before any product.

Two years of daily carry

Two years of daily commuting and the only sign of use is a slight sheen on the corners. Nothing has frayed, nothing has jammed.

Great buy, wish it came in olive

Function is perfect and the price is fair for the build quality. Purely a color preference thing — I'd have bought two if there were a muted green.

Very good, minor nitpick

Really solid product and fast delivery. I'd love one more interior pocket, but that's a wish-list item, not a flaw.

My mother-in-law bought two more

Gave one as a gift and within a week the rest of the family had ordered their own. That's the highest compliment I can give a leather bag.

Third purchase from Wayfare

At this point I just buy whatever they make. Consistent quality, honest descriptions, and returns have never been an issue on the one item that wasn't right for me.

Excellent, slightly larger than expected

Quality is not in question — it's outstanding. Just measure carefully before ordering, because it's a little roomier than I pictured from the listing photos.

Questions & answers

Asked by real buyers, answered by us

Full-grain and top-grain hide only, depending on the model — it's listed in the specs table. We don't use bonded leather, corrected split or PU-coated split anywhere, including linings and strap keepers.
