About the Style
Thoughtfully sized, the Alto Raul Messenger is built to handle the essentials of a workday or trip without excess bulk. Inside, it comfortably holds a slim 13-inch laptop or tablet, a notebook, reading glasses in a hard case, and a full-size wallet, with space left for a compact umbrella or small water bottle laid on its side. The center zip pocket separates tech from personal items, so chargers, cables, and a power bank stay organized and tangle free. Two interior slip pockets keep items like a phone, card holder, or small sanitizer upright, while the dedicated card slot offers a secure spot for your most-used card. The exterior pocket is ideal for stowing a phone or travel documents you need to access quickly while on the go.
The adjustable strap allows the bag to sit comfortably as a crossbody during commutes, city walks, or airport travel, and it can be shortened for a classic over-the-shoulder carry. Its tailored shape pairs effortlessly with a blazer and dress shoes for a professional setting, yet looks equally at home with denim and boots on the weekend. Designed to move seamlessly from office to evening plans or from gate to hotel, this messenger brings quiet sophistication and practical versatility to every day.
About the Leather
Crafted from rich Vacchetta leather sourced in the heart of Tuscany, this material embodies timeless Italian craftsmanship. Smooth to the touch with a natural sheen, it develops a beautiful patina that only gets better with age.
Product Care
The Alto Collection has not been specifically treated for water repellency. Thus, the leather will temporarily darken when wet, and return to the original tone once completely dry. The waxed surface may assist in staving off some dirt. With continued use, a lovely shine or patina will develop, only enhancing the beauty of this leather. It is also characteristic for lighter colors to darken with use over time, and with exposure to light. Minor abrasions may be removed or lessened with the use of a very soft cloth and a gentle buffing action. This collection requires no creams, polishes or leather conditioning products to maintain its beauty.
