This American leather hails from Seidel Tannery in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. During the tanning process, Navigator leather is infused with oils that not only give it a rich, creamy hand feel, but allow it to take on a personality of its own as you carry it. Scratches rub out easily and the color variation that naturally occurs with wear only enhances its character — making it the ultimate no-fuss leather.
Canfield Relaxed Messenger
The Shinola Canfield Leather Collection takes its cues from its namesake. Clean, crisp, and classic, the Canfield’s simplicity belies an inner complexity and sophistication. These leather pieces are staples with style, everyday bags that are anything but basic.
The Canfield Relaxed Messenger is business in front, party on the strap. The durable flap snaps into place with a magnetic closure. Lift the flap to find a cotton-lined interior with two slip pockets for your phone and accessories, as well as a 15” padded laptop sleeve.
Finished with durable brass hardware in a gunmetal finish, the Relaxed Messenger is a bag that lets its hair down—but only after a hard day’s work.
