Your Selection










In cognac, the Phileas Jr. shows off the Badalassi Carlo Minerva leather's natural warmth and character. Handcrafted in Florence, Italy from vegetable-tanned hide sourced in Santa Croce, Tuscany — a leather that develops a beautiful patina with use. Now upgraded with Swiss-made zippers. The shoulder strap attachment has been reinforced for greater strength under load. A hidden zip pocket sits on one side, while the main compartment opens to a cotton-lined interior. Metal feet protect the base from wear, and a detachable shoulder strap offers versatile carry. All hardware is palladium-plated brass by Dos Pablos e Hijos of Madrid. The cognac is the colour that will age most visibly and most beautifully.
