Flight Bag Leather Laptop Bag Briefcase Explained

- Inspired by old school Gladstone bags, this is Saddleback's take on a leather laptop bag briefcase with a solid hinged opening. This is how they kept bags shut tight before zippers were invented. Also inspired by the flight bags carried by pilots, who need a bag that stays wide open for quick access in the tight quarters of a cockpit.

This might have to be my first Saddleback Leather purchase. Awesome bag.
Dave here. Thank you. It's a pretty cool bag
This flight bag looks more professional than other Saddleback briefs. Good job.
Made a bag for pilots.... here's where you keep your bottle opener.
That's funny
There's a spot for a flask too
That’s a monster bottle opener
@@haruruben I have two of them. My family makes fun, but they’re awesome
Hello from Alaska!
Sir, in my opinion you are missing three important things... water bottle and radio/transmitter pockets in the outside and a sleeve/strap in the back of the bag to secure it to your carry on bag while walking in the airport. I think that if you add this three convenient accessories the rest is there! I will like to see how much space a set of A20 bose headset takes out of the bag. I will like to see a dedicated compartment for the headset as well or at least a strap in the inside of the bag to hang them securely. I think you might have designed more of a messenger bag instead of a Pilot bag. I will like to see a bag actually dedicated for pilots in general not air transport pilots only (ATP). Thanks for the video and please let me know if you are able to add this accessories to the bag, I will pay for a custom bag if you are interested. I love the quality of your leather and the craftsmanship you put into every job!
agreed, needs a transceiver pocket, water bottle pocket, and a padded laptop pocket inside10-15in.
Almost cracked your phone with that bottle opener drop! Beautiful bag, by the way.
Great video. I have one on order. Looking forward to using this one. Thanks for designing & making it available!
I love the way this bag opens
Looks like Thin Front Pocket Briefcase but with fewer... uhm ... pockets. Especially missing sigar compartment, which is perfect for carring round emergency batteries.
Love that bag. Love all my Saddleback stuff. Worth every penny. But, that bottle opener... Wow. It looks like it was made out of a recycled steel girder. Could you imagine that on a keychain?
What a beauty! But, I can't abandon my loyal 2009 DCB L Briefcase! I pair it with my SL Canvas "potato sack" back pack when flying. Keep innovating! God Bless!
Dave here. Who says you have to abandon? It's not an either/or, but rather a both/and
Saddleback Leather thank you for your kind reply! Honoured to get response from El Presidente! Thanks to you we have awesome luggage and two beautiful kids in Rwanda! Hope to visit them both with their American brother! God Bless!
Come with us on our next trip
Saddleback Leather Would love to meet you and your family there! God Bless!
You’re kill’n me, Dave! I waited, looked, and saved up 6 months to buy one of your briefcases. And got the thin front pocket last month. I LOVE it except I HATE that the top flap comes too far down the front. I have to CONSTANTLY open and close the top flap every time I want to get something out of the front pockets. Ironic this was announced today because I was thinking about sending you a video demo TODAY and suggest you shorten the top flap, a simple way to fix the design flaw. Granted, I know you can’t think of everything every time. So I guess I’ll order this one and put mine on eBay. Love ya buddy! Charlie Pitkin.
Update: I just noticed it doesn’t have the backpack straps or D rings. Nuts. That’s a deal killer. Well, as The Rolling Stones say, You can’t always get what you want! I’ll just get better and faster at opening that top flap! But I am going to convince my Dad this is the perfect bag for him, because it is.
P.s. My Wednesday morning men’s breakfast club just decided this week to read The Reason for God together. Looking forward to it!
I was thinking about the front flap and even though I hate to open it and close it constantly it also offers you a protection of the hidden pockets that otherwise you don't have in this new bag... hum....
This is high quality screw Louis Vuitton when you can have saddle back co
Why couldn't it be used in backpack mode using the leather handles? Seems like it could work.
I use the canvas briefcase for a flight bag. You don’t want to be fiddling with buckles while flying. The pad eye closure would be perfect on this leather application. On my other saddleback products I ditch the buckles and install AustriAlpin for a no nonsense opening and closing experience.
These look great but how exactly do you go about installing them? Do you have to remove stitching?
You cut and loop the leather through the buckle and then rivet and stitch. I have my local shoe cobbler do the work since you need a very robust machine.
@@PumpUptheJam81 hey there- any chance you'd be open to sharing what the finished product looks like? what you're describing sounds like the best of both worlds (classic leather design with contemporary hardware). I agree the loops & buckles don't seem to be the most convenient.
Love the look of this bag! Quick question though...where did you get the leather chair? I’m a sales/design consultant for a furniture company. Always glad to see nice leather furniture.
Great looking bag! Like the book suggestion too, I'll check it out.
You need to sell those little mini bags
Dave, I would love if this converted to a backpack like the Classic. Any chance of changing it?
Beautiful
Cool bag, but uh… where’s the pilot stuff go? We carry headsets, multiple chargers with cords, company issue, iPad, personal tablet, smartphone, pens/markers, glasses, water, various papers. Lovely bag, not nearly enough room for a pilot.
Keller for the win!! (Just ordered mine today!!) #ElPresidenteforPresident
That is a cool design.
When will I be able get my flight bag it’s been on back order for a month. Great stuff 👍
how much can i give you for the mini bags
For air travel, a flight bag should be shorter so you can slide it under the seat in front of you while still upright. Right now you have to lay it on its side...odd.
Heard about Save Munson from 'how to win friends and influence people'
Dave here. That was a cool book. Felt honored to be included in there
i feel like that would make a good tool bag as well
Any idea when we'll be able to order?
This week
Thursday is the day. We're all pretty excited about it because of the feedback.
Today
Just ordered mine, waiting for the back log to clear, hopefully I will get it soon!
Got it today, amazing bag!!!, thank you Dave for the wonderful design
What color is this bag?
Hello! This looks like Chestnut. Can you confirm whether this is Chestnut or Dark Coffee Brown? Thanks!
Dave here. Chestnut it is
I need one of it🤩
Would this fit a laptop that is 14.75" wide by 10" high or is it too tight?
It would be JUST right. No room for a cover on it though.
dave, when you carry it on your shoulders, the front handle falls towards the front?
Jose Duca Where else would it fall?
@@Titaniacs lol
would this hold up in Seattle rain or what would you recommend
Dave here. Yes, I chose chrome tanned leather instead of veg tanned because this leather does so well with water and veg doesn't. I'm from Portland and have spent a lot of time in the rain with mine.
Is there a secret compartment in the bottom of the bag?
yes, it has the false bottom
Is this DCB
Please design partition that convert this to a nice camera bag
Hi there. This is Dave. I'm actually getting back into the camera bag mode. I gave up about 4 years ago and now I'm back to the drawing board.
Saddleback Leather great to hear that, don't give up.
You may want to reinforce the anchor for straps since cameras tend to be heavier. ...
It's going to be cool. Probably modular so that it's a carry on size that breaks apart for a short hike or stroll in the park without taking the whole case
make it a tad larger......please
Hello sir, would you mind tell us what kind of the leather?
All of their backpacks and briefcases are using the Pigskin lining. I have contacted the website via chat, and they confirmed it.
@@sFaAiRdO8U3K thank you.
@@habbatusiaysaudaii4753 you’re welcome
What is the color in this video? Chestnut or DCB?
Will this take a 17" Laptop?
It's not quite long enough for a 17" laptop. If you'll let me know the exact measurements from left to right I can let you know what products might work for you. ~Susan~
sir I am from India , which leather bag is best for MacBook Air 13" ? and which brand ?
Apple fans likes overpriced things. Yeee Haaa.
