Finding a laptop bag that ticks all the boxes is not easy. We know what it's like. That's why we designed the City. A laptop bag so elegant it can easily accompany you to business meetings and casual enough that you'll want to have it with you every day.
When carrying a laptop, functionality is key. But that doesn't mean you need to sacrifice style. City has a beautifully slim profile while its interior has been designed to fit a range of modern laptops and mobile devices while keeping them nicely organized and safely secure. Additional zipped pockets make carrying smaller items easy. Handcrafted from full-grain vegetable-tanned leather, the City has durable cotton canvas lining and sturdy zippers and hardware. The rounded top handles make the bag easy to carry, while you can also opt for the adjustable shoulder strap.
For those who prefer laptops with a 17-inch screen, we've designed the City Large, a bigger brother of the City.

We offer product personalization—embossing and engraving—for most of our leather accessories.
Add initials, names, dates, logos, phrases, or personal messages to create a truly thoughtful and one of a kind gift of sentimental value that can be cherished for years to come.
You’ll find personalization options on the product page of your chosen item. Select embossing or laser engraving before checkout, and we’ll take care of the rest.














We recommend treating your leather accessory once a month with our Premium Leather Cream. First, remove any dirt or dust from the leather with a cloth. Then apply a thin and even layer of the cream on dry and clean leather with a cotton cloth in circular movements. Allow to dry and then polish.
When ordering from us, you’ll receive everything ready to be gifted. Our bags come with a handmade cotton dust bag. Please use it when storing the bag to help the leather remain in good condition and develop a rich patina over time.Additionally, all smaller items such as wallets and belts will arrive beautifully wrapped in tissue paper, a gift box, and a gift bag.
We offer free worldwide express shipping on all orders over $500.

CERTIFIED ITALIAN VEGETABLE-TANNED LEATHER
Von Baer products are crafted using premium vegetable-tanned Italian leather. Because we believe in the importance of sustainability, each of our product comes with a certificate of leather origin. The trademark Pelle Conciata al Vegetale in Toscana (Tuscan Vegetable-Tanned Leather) guarantees the quality and origin of the leather. It encompasses not just the material itself but also how it has been treated.

MADE IN ITALY
It is not without reason that Italy is known as the land of true artisans. All our products are made in Florence, Italy in family-owned studios, where the tradition of leather craftsmanship has been passed down generations. Believing that our customers deserve the best and showing our appreciation for this masterful heritage craft, we are ready to pay honest production prices for the high-quality work being put into each product.

FINE ITALIAN COTTON LINING
We ensure that all our products are beautiful inside and out. We use natural thick and robust Italian cotton canvas lining. Unlike synthetic materials, it is sustainable and pleasant to touch. Moreover, the cotton lining is long-lasting thanks to the well-known Italian grasp of impeccable textile manufacturing. Due to this, an ordinary fabric like cotton is turned into something that will serve well to those who expect the highest quality.

JAPANESE YKK ZIPPERS
Your product is only as good as its weakest link. You don’t want to throw away your bag after a couple of months of use simply because the zipper didn’t hold up. That’s why we only use the renowned YKK zippers for our products.

SUSTAINABILITY
When choosing Von Baer products, you can be sure that you’re not only getting something stylish and high quality but are also supporting a sustainable business and traditional craftsmanship. We do our business in a way that supports local communities and does not harm the planet.
