Founded in 1917, Korchmar is one of the oldest accessory brands and producers of leather products in the United States. Additionally, Korchmar is also a 4th Generation family business with the unique distinction of making everything it sells as they own and operate their manufacturing facilities in the United States and The Dominican Republic. Getting onto the topic of this Garfield Bomber Bag Leather Briefcase, there are many key features that will drive your interest. This bag is made using an antique oil tanned leather that shows signs of wear (something we love) with constant use. Another interesting feature which i have personally never seen before is the quick release metal "tuck-tite" closures with buckle adjusters. This is made for fast access to your belongings. Being in a fast paced environment, having to unstrap or undo buckles can be tedious. I also appreciate the interior pockets used for smaller electronics or other items you don't necessarily want rubbing against your laptop. All around, this briefcase defines the class and sophistication of our modern day gentleman.

Korchmar manufactures products for some of the world's leading luxury accessory brands. After spending a majority of their recent time focusing on manufacturing for other brands, the company has made the conscious decision to bring the same quality to their own product lines with a new collection of handsome and sophisticated bags & accessories. Korchmar pays close attention to the details and doesn't skimp on quality. They only use full-grained leather, antique leather, steel closures and provide a five year full warranty on their products as well as an extended warranty after that. Their mantra is to bring back class and sophistication to the modern day gentleman. This Korchmar Twain duffel is essentially a must-have bag for the weekend getaways.
The bag is made with a thick oil tanned leather that smells and feels like quality and effort has been put into making a beautiful piece. It shows character over time as this leather darkens and obtains a natural break-in. I have been a huge fan of these leather duffels, specifically for traveling as it looks much more handsome then your cart-around rolling suitcase. It also has vast amount of internal space (22" x 9"x 10" Dimensions) which is more than enough to accompany a weeks worth or garments. The ends of the duffel feature antique brass clamp down links that you can use to allow for even more expansion.
