The Roosevelt is built for people who like a bag with history in its look. This vintage leather briefcase is made from buffalo leather that is hand-dyed using a vegetable tanning method, so every piece carries a slightly different grain and tone. No two Roosevelts are exactly alike.

Why Vegetable Tanning Gives a Vintage Leather Briefcase Its Character
Vegetable tanning uses natural tannins instead of harsh chemicals, and it leaves leather with a more open, natural look. That is where the vintage feel of the Roosevelt comes from. It does not look aged because of a printed finish; it looks that way because the hide is left close to how it was. Over months of carrying, the color deepens and the surface picks up a soft sheen, which is what people mean when they talk about briefcase vintage leather done properly. It suits creatives, academics and anyone who prefers a rugged bag to a glossy one. As a leather briefcase men reach for on both workdays and weekends, the Roosevelt is a gift that also works well for birthdays, anniversaries and Christmas.
