“Buy the best, cry once” - Pasquale

If you've ever bought an article of leather and it went from Ferrari to sorry in 4.3 seconds, you’re safe now. I honestly don't know how any of our pieces can be made better. On the website, I explain each of the points below, in depth. Also, on the website, you can see hundreds of the bag pictures the Saddleback family members have sent in from all over the world like the ones in this auction.

Laptop Case Features
(click on photo for larger view)


 

Have you ever seen a cool laptop case?

  • 100% Waterproof full grain boot leather
  • High density double Neoprene padding
  • Thick externally sewn edges to absorb hits
  • 100 year warranty
  • No breakable parts e.g. zippers, snaps, etc.

Other nice details

  • Highly heat and cold resistant - Heat is the big laptop killer. This is built with non-conductive Neoprene sandwiched between very thick non-conductive leather and pigskin and therefore inside temperature takes a long time to change if locked in your car.
  • Removable shoulder strap so it can fit into your briefcase
  • Rear map/magazine pocket
  • Handle built so a pouch with power cord and mouse can attach
  • Lined with smooth and extremely durable pigskin
  • Very cool closure
 Here are a few questions.  Answer honestly as your first response is usually the most accurate one:

 

1.  Will your grandkids contest the will over your present leather briefcase?

2.  If your last bag were empty and someone was trying to steal it, would you fight for it tooth and nail?

3.  Have you ever placed your leather satchel so people could admire it?

4.  Besides the soon forgotten cash, what will you leave behind that they’ll remember you by?

If you answered yes or no to any of these questions, then you and I both know you need to read on…

 

Specifics of the Laptop Case

(click photo for larger view)

 

Ever been proud of your laptop case?

  • Dimensions: Large 16 ¼" x 12" x 2" (17" laptops that are over 1 ½" thick fit very very snug so that getting it out requires the hands of a man's man. In cases like that, the leather always stretches to fit perfectly). Medium 15" x 11" x 2"
  • Walls 5/16" thick. Leather/two layers of Neoprene/pigskin
  • Weight approx. 3 lbs.
  • One back exterior pocket for files and folders 9 ½" tall x 16 ¼" wide
  • Shoulder strap adjustable from 39" to 59"
  • Thick double zero continuous filament Polyester marine grade industrial thread
  • Hypoallergenic 4-5 oz. (2-2.2 mm) thick chrome tanned leather
  • Handle riveted to padded aluminum bar for stiff upper rigidity
  • Only two major seams
  • Tough pigskin lining. Pigskin is the second strongest hide in the world, second to kangaroo.

The Most Inexpensive Laptop Case You Can Buy

In college, I bought a pair of expensive shoes for my job as a waiter.  I couldn't afford them, but I bought them anyhow.  They were really light and comfortable and took me through two years of waiting tables and one year as a limo driver. Then, they still looked good for a month of Sundays.  Most of the other waiters bought a new pair of $45 heavy and uncomfortable shoes every 6 months because theirs wore out and looked ratty by then. This will be one of the inexpensive bags you'll ever have.  Moral of the Story:  Buy the best, cry once.

 

How to Convince your Honey


So you want it, but… now comes the hard part; to convince your honey.  Throw some of these phrases out and see what happens.


Her to Him 

  • I feel FRISKY every time I even think about this bag.
  • I would just feel so SEXY with this bag. 
  • I think this bag would really make me LOOK THINNER.
  • I don't think I'd ever want to go shopping for another bag after having one like this.


Him to Her

  • Even looking at this bag makes me want to just HOLD you.
  • I don't know why, but just the thought of this bag makes me want to TALK with you for hours on end.
  • Think of all of the extra TIME we'd spend TOGETHER on our long walks holding hands and showing off the bag.
  • Maybe owning my dream bag would help me OPEN UP to you and SHARE the hopes and dreams I have for us.

Me to Both of You

If you don't buy this bag, then next year, when you're scouring the internet looking for your next soon-to-be garage sale bag, your mind will drift back to my words.   You'll slowly shake your head and say, "Man, was that guy right or what".  And then you'll press your lips together, squint and give a few small nods.  I tell you what, buy it now or kick yourself later.

 

I've made this bag for you to break in.  It'll take a few months or maybe a few years until it really starts to look cool.  You'll have to use it a lot.  In fact, the more you use it, the better it looks (and it already looks great).  It'll eventually soften up and form to the places on your body it touches regularly.  The edges will round some and it'll start looking even more chic and classic than it already does.  

 

Sales Tax

Texas buyers please note that those awful mean and evil bureaucrats in your state charge you 8.125% sales tax when you buy one of these bags just because Saddleback Leather Co. is based in Texas.  I really don't think it's fair.  Actually, I used to sell at times, the bidding would go up to $700.  You're getting quite a deal even with tax.


International Shipments
 

Import duties, taxes and charges are NOT INCLUDED in the item price or shipping and handling charges. These fees come from your own government and are the buyer’s responsibility. Please check with your country's customs office to determine what these additional costs might be before bidding/purchase. Each country is different and there is no way we could know what that exact tax charge for you would be. These charges are normally collected by the delivering freight (shipping) company or when you pick up your purchase. Do not confuse them with additional shipping charges. We won’t mark items as a "gift". That’s illegal.

 

Warranty


We at Saddleback Leather Co. are so confident of what you're about to buy, that our products are fully guaranteed against defects in materials and workmanship for 100 years.  If you or one of your lucky descendants should have a problem, send it back and we'll repair, issue store credit, or replace it for free (be sure to put this warranty in your will).

 

Saddleback Leather products are made to last a lifetime or two, but they're not bear or bullet or semi truck proof.  The warranty covers normal wear and tear and does not cover misuse or abuse.

 

 

By the way, the final picture below is of my dog, Blue, jumping into lake Michoacán down in Mexico.  Back in my single days, when it was just Blue and me and we were just getting Saddleback started, I traded of of Blue’s stud fee puppies for a hundred tacos.  I did that twice (full story with pictures on website) He was a great dog and I miss him a lot.

Now be honest, if you just read the whole description for the second time, you're a goner.  Just send me your address now, so I can get your box ready.

Warm Regards from San Antonio, Texas
