Product Information

Full details

The Howard London Laptop Bag Frank is designed for the adult male commuter or traveler seeking a durable and stylish way to transport their laptop and essentials. Its key benefit lies in the combination of genuine cowhide construction with ample, organized storage, including a padded laptop compartment. A potential caveat for some users might be that the natural leather finish develops a patina over time, which, while desirable for many, is a unique characteristic of the material.

How do I care for the cowhide leather?

Clean with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals. Use a specific leather conditioner for cowhide periodically and test on an inconspicuous area first.

Will the leather color change over time?

Can I carry a water bottle or umbrella in this bag?

While there are no dedicated bottle holders, the main compartment or front/back zip pockets can accommodate a slim water bottle or umbrella, depending on its size.

Troubleshooting

Zipper is stiff or stuck

Gently try to move the zipper back and forth. Apply a small amount of beeswax or graphite pencil lead to the zipper teeth to lubricate it. Avoid forcing the zipper.

Leather appears dry or dull

Apply a leather conditioner specifically formulated for cowhide. Test the conditioner on an inconspicuous area first. Use sparingly and buff gently.

Strap hardware feels loose

Check that the strap clips are fully engaged with the D-rings. If the hardware itself is damaged, contact customer support for potential replacement parts.

Water spots on leather

Allow the bag to air dry naturally away from direct heat. Once dry, apply a leather conditioner to help restore suppleness and blend the appearance of the water spot.
