Trends come and go, but the men's messenger bags have been around for centuries. Messengers were originally utilized by marching Roman soldiers, updated with the rugged Pony Express, and were refined in the 40's. Our messenger bags for men take that classic concept and bring them into 2018. Each and every bag is handmade by our artisans and their work is their love, made visible. They'll complete the look of the discerning executive or dedicated student.
