Luxurious Gifts for Dad

For the dad who won't replace what he's got until someone does it for him. Every Von Baer piece is handmade from full-grain leather, cut from carefully selected A-grade hides, from the wallet he's carried for years to the briefcase or carry-on that marks a milestone.

Almost every piece can carry his initials, embossed by hand and complimentary. Smaller pieces arrive wrapped in tissue in our gift box and bag, and bags come in a soft cotton dust bag, ready to give.

Buying Guide

Von Baer Gifts for Dad. Full-Grain A-Grade Leather, Cut From the Bend.

Every piece in this range is made from full-grain leather (full-grain is the outermost, toughest layer of the hide, with the natural grain preserved in full), selected from A-grade hides.

  • A-grade hides cut from the bend: we select A-grade hides only from Bos Taurus cattle, chosen for their tight, consistent grain; hides with excessive bites, scars, or surface damage don't make the selection. Our leather is cut from the bend, the back and butt of the hide where the fibers are densest, not the weaker belly and shoulder leather that stretches and distorts over time.
  • Drum-dyed, so the color runs all the way through: We drum-dye the leather, so the color runs all the way through it: if it's ever scuffed, the leather underneath is the same shade, not the pale mark surface-dyed leather shows.
  • Complimentary personalization with his initials: almost every piece can be personalized with up to four uppercase initials, most of them blind-embossed by hand before it ships. Tick the personalization box on the product page and add the initials.
  • Gift-wrapped and ready to give: wallets, card holders and other smaller pieces arrive wrapped in tissue in our gift box and gift bag. Larger bags come in a soft cotton dust bag, and the desk pad arrives in a protective microfiber sleeve.
  • 5-Year Limited Warranty on every piece: we stand behind every piece for five years against defects in materials or workmanship, because each one is made to be carried for decades.
  • Duties, taxes and insurance included: the displayed price includes all applicable duties and taxes, and every order ships fully insured by express courier, complimentary over $150, so it arrives covered against loss or damage on the way to him.
  • One price, no seasonal sales: Von Baer never does discounts, coupons, or Black Friday sales. The price is the same today as it will be next month. For a gift, that matters: he won't see it marked down the week after he opens it.

Von Baer Luxury Gifts. From His Daily Wallet to His Travel Bag.

There's a piece here for every part of his day, from the wallet in his pocket to the bag he travels with.

  • His everyday wallet is falling apart: our Classic Bifold Leather Wallet is a traditional bifold, which folds once in half, with four card slots, a snap coin pocket, and two full-length bill compartments for USD, EUR, and GBP. An RFID-blocking lining stops wireless readers scanning a card's chip through the leather. The leather keeps its refined look for years, where a cheaper wallet cracks and peels. You can have up to four initials blind-embossed before it ships. W 11 cm (4.3 in) x H 9.3 cm (3.7 in) x D 2 cm (0.79 in); 60 g (2.12 oz).
  • A promotion, a new role, or the work bag he'd never buy himself: our No.1 Men's Leather Briefcase has a triple-gusset design with three spacious sections that fits a 16" laptop, A4 documents, phone, and tablet without cramming. Key-lock closure keeps papers private on a shared desk or in a hotel room, and protective metal feet keep the case off the floor. It's made in Northern Italy. W 40.5 cm (15.9 in) x H 29 cm (11.4 in) x D 10-12 cm (3.9-4.7 in); 2.1 kg (4.7 lb).
  • For the dad who travels and packs into whatever's closest: the Weekender Men's Leather Weekend Bag is carry-on compliant (made to fit airline cabin-bag size limits), with a padded sleeve for laptops up to 16" and plenty of room for a weekend away. It doubles as a gym bag, so he carries one bag instead of two. The shoulder strap is removable, so he can carry it over his shoulder through the airport and take the strap off after. Experienced craftsmen handcraft it in Northern Italy. W 55 cm (21.65 in) x H 30 cm (11.81 in) x D 23.5 cm (9.25 in); 2.2 kg (4.19 lbs).
  • He has everything and buys himself nothing: the Majestic Leather Valet Tray (a valet tray is a leather dish for pocket contents, kept by the door or bed) gives his keys, watch, and wallet one landing spot so the morning hunt for them ends. It closes at the corners with snap buttons, with a smooth microfiber interior and a water-repellent finish. At $225 with his initials blind-embossed, it's a gift that's clearly been chosen for him. Usable area 16 x 16 x 4.8 cm (6.3 x 6.3 x 1.9 in); 117 g (4.1 oz).
  • For the dad who collects or travels with watches: the Calibre Leather Watch Roll holds two timepieces on detachable padded cushions inside a rigid, reinforced shell with a soft microfiber interior. The cushions keep cases and crystals apart in a suitcase, and the rigid walls protect the watches from knocks. W 15.5 cm (6.1 in) x H 10 cm (3.9 in) x D 7.3 cm (2.9 in); 200 g (7 oz).
  • A considered luxury gift under $350: the Atlas Leather Passport Holder keeps his passport flat and findable at the gate, with RFID-blocking lining that shields the embedded chip and a grosgrain (ribbed woven ribbon) page marker for the photo page. At $195 with his initials blind-embossed, it's a considered gift without the price of the bags. W 10 cm (3.9 in) x H 14 cm (5.5 in) x D 0.7 cm (0.28 in); 55 g (1.9 oz).

FAQs

Which of these gifts can be personalized?

Almost every piece offers complimentary personalization with up to four initials, most of them blind-embossed by hand. On wallets and small accessories, the initials go directly on the leather; on bags, they're embossed on the included leather luggage tag. One wallet uses gold embossing instead of blind.

Is shipping, duties, and gift packaging included in the price?

All applicable duties and taxes are covered in the displayed price, and express shipping is complimentary over $150 in the US and Canada, €100 in the EU, and £100 in the UK. Wallets, card holders, travel accessories, the valet tray and the watch roll arrive wrapped in tissue in a Von Baer gift box and bag; bags come in a soft cotton dust bag, and the desk pad in a protective microfiber sleeve.
