The Aberdeen travel bag is made of 100% vegetable-tanned, lightly waxed cowhide. The models in the Aberdeen bag series have a slim cut and a pleasantly lightweight design. The stitched edges give the bag a clear shape and a good grip, without appearing stiff or formal. The textured cowhide, accentuated leather appliqués, and selectively placed rivets create a casual look. The shoulder straps are threaded into the stitched upper edge and run flush with the bag. This shape makes the bag sit ergonomically comfortably against the body, especially when worn crossbody, and doesn't press into the side.
