HISTORICAL ORIGINAL
16" LAPTOP COMPARTMENT
DIAMOND QUILTING
YKK ZIPPERS
The "Edward" messenger bag looks as if it has already seen many journeys – inspired by the bags of early travelers and messengers who journeyed between cities, continents, and stories. A bag for all those who don't just want to arrive, but want to leave something behind along the way.
Made from full-grain, vegetable-tanned buffalo leather, "Edward" visibly embodies this spirit. Over time, its surface develops a lively patina, and the traces of everyday life become part of its character. Inside, a high-quality cotton lining provides protection and a pleasant feel.
The functional interior layout offers a padded compartment for laptops up to 16 inches, four open compartments for documents and personal items, and two pen holders for everything that needs to be quickly at hand. On the back, there is a large open compartment for things you don't want to search for on the go.
The detachable and length-adjustable shoulder strap allows for comfortable carrying over the shoulder, while the sturdy carrying handle offers an elegant alternative for the commute to the office. This way, the bag effortlessly adapts to your everyday life – whether it's a meeting, a trip, or a spontaneous detour.
The "Edward" messenger bag is almost entirely handmade. It is more than a classic shoulder bag – it is a statement of style, substance, and the joy of going your own way.

Full grain buffalo leather
During the British era in India, traditional bag making flourished. The fusion of British designs with Indian craftsmanship resulted in high-quality leather bags made from robust, vegetable-tanned buffalo leather, also known as hunter leather, which is known for its distinctive grain. In our collection we use exactly this special material to create a high-quality and authentic look. The durable Hunter leather develops a beautiful patina over time, which gives each bag a unique and personal touch.
Pure cotton lining
Our lining fabric is made from pure cotton twill, a soft and natural material. For the Outlaw collection, we have developed an inspiring signature print featuring old nautical charts that gives each piece a special touch. This high-quality cotton lining not only offers comfort, but also a stylish addition to our handmade bags.
The value of a good trip
The story behind the bags
We are Daniel and Christoph and we are living our dream. Although we are both completely different, we share a great passion: traveling. We founded the DRAKENSBERG label because we want to inspire people to recognize the true value of travel and to strive for it. To see the journey as a destination and to grow from it. Because we believe that a good trip can change your whole life. The trip that changed our lives took us across South Africa almost 20 years ago. When we wanted to drive from Cape Town to the Drakensberg. But we never got there.
