Black PU faux leatherMedium or LargeShoe compartment
There is something of the gentleman's luggage of years past in the BOLER bag, revisited for an active, urban life. This black, slightly glossy weekend travel bag is made of faux leather (PU) and lined with durable canvas. Two straps sewn along the entire height support the handles and give it the structure of a classic travel bag, while an adjustable and detachable shoulder strap, attached with carabiners, allows it to be carried over the shoulder or across the body. At one end, a zippered shoe compartment isolates sneakers or shoes from the rest of your belongings. The BOLER comes in two sizes: Medium (44 x 23 x 25 cm), which fits a tablet, and Large (50 x 29 x 26 cm), taller and longer for a proper weekend. A getaway to the countryside, a business trip, a gym session before dinner: it keeps pace with every rhythm with the same understated style. The all-black look, highlighted by a white label on the front, goes just as well with a trench coat as it does with sportswear.
The two sizes

Both sizes share the same black design, the same materials, and the same shoe compartment: only the volume changes. The Large gains 6 cm in length and 6 cm in height.
The materials
PU faux leather and canvas lining
The exterior of the BOLER is made of PU faux leather (polyurethane). This synthetic material reproduces the look of smooth, slightly satin leather without using animal skin. It resists light water splashes well and is very easy to maintain with a damp cloth, which is suitable for a bag that is often placed on the floor, in a trunk, or on a locker room bench.
The interior is lined with canvas, a simple, sturdy weave fabric that protects clothing and withstands the friction of packed luggage. The combination of an easy-to-wipe exterior and a durable textile lining makes the BOLER a practical bag, designed for regular use.

The uncompromising all-black look
The BOLER relies on a deliberately limited palette: a deep black for the bag's body, straps, and shoulder strap, a simple white label on the front, and a few touches of metal on the zipper pulls and carabiners. This sobriety allows it to transition effortlessly from a sportswear look to a more formal outfit.
The vertical straps that support the handles, sewn along the entire height, are reminiscent of retro travel bags and visually reinforce its structure. In our photos, you can see it placed on steps, carried over the shoulder on a staircase, held by hand in the city, and the two sizes side-by-side to compare their volume.

Composition: exterior in PU faux leather, canvas lining. Double handles, adjustable and detachable shoulder strap attached with carabiners, zippered shoe compartment at one end, large main compartment closed with a zipper.
Our tip: roll your clothes instead of folding them. They crease less, fit better in the bag, and leave more room for a toiletry bag, a camera, or an extra sweater.

Good to know: the BOLER is made of faux leather (PU) and not natural leather. Avoid exposing it to high heat for long periods, for example behind a car windshield in the sun, and do not fold it onto itself when storing it empty: preferably keep it stuffed with paper, away from humidity.
A gift for getaways
For a young graduate starting to travel for work, a friend always between two trains, a sporty brother, or a couple who collects weekend trips, the BOLER is an elegant and practical gift that will be used for a long time.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between the Medium and Large sizes?
Both versions share exactly the same design, the same materials, and the same storage; only the volume changes. The Medium size measures 44 x 23 x 25 cm: it is suitable for a gym session, an overnight stay, or daily use, and fits a tablet. The Large size measures 50 x 29 x 26 cm: 6 cm more in length and height, enough to fit a full weekend, a thick sweater, or a second pair of shoes. If you are hesitating, think about the most frequent use you will have for it.
Is the BOLER made of real leather?
No. The exterior of the BOLER is made of PU faux leather (polyurethane), a synthetic material that reproduces the look of smooth, satin-finished leather. This choice offers several advantages for a travel and sports bag: good resistance to splashes, very easy maintenance with a quick wipe, and the absence of animal material. The interior is lined with canvas. If you are specifically looking for a natural leather bag, the BOLER will not meet this criterion; however, it will suit those who want the style of leather luggage with the ease of maintenance.
What is the compartment at one end for?
The BOLER features an independent zippered compartment at one end, clearly visible in our photos, where you can slip a pair of sneakers or city shoes. It allows you to separate shoes from clean clothes, which is particularly useful after coming back from the gym or a walk in the rain. You can also store a wet swimsuit, a used towel, or a bag of dirty laundry in it. Remember to leave it open for a few hours after use so it can air out properly.
How can you carry the BOLER?
The BOLER offers three ways to carry it. Its two handles, fixed to straps sewn along the full height of the bag, allow you to hold it by hand like classic luggage. Its adjustable shoulder strap, attached by two carabiners, can be worn over the shoulder or across the body to keep your hands free, for example while holding a suitcase or a coffee. It is detachable: remove it for a cleaner look or to slide the bag into a locker. Adjust its length so that the bag rests at hip level.
Can the BOLER be used as carry-on luggage?
Its dimensions, 44 x 23 x 25 cm for Medium and 50 x 29 x 26 cm for Large, correspond to a soft bag of reasonable size, which can easily be placed in a train or bus luggage compartment. For air travel, the rules vary greatly from one airline to another, both for carry-on luggage and for the personal item placed under the seat. We therefore recommend that you check the authorized dimensions with your carrier before departure. Being flexible, the bag adapts somewhat to the available volume if it is not filled to capacity.
How do you maintain faux leather?
PU faux leather is very simple to maintain. Regularly wipe the exterior with a soft, slightly damp cloth, then dry with a dry cloth. For more stubborn dirt, add a drop of mild soap to the water. Avoid solvents, alcohol, abrasive products, and natural leather creams, which are not suitable. Do not leave the bag in direct sunlight behind a window or near a radiator. To store it between trips, empty it, stuff it with paper, and keep it in a dry, ventilated place.
Does the BOLER come in other colors?
The BOLER is offered only in black, the shade that gives it its classic and timeless luggage look. This all-black look, from the body of the bag to the straps and shoulder strap, is simply enhanced by a white label on the front and a few metallic details. It is a versatile choice that goes with every outfit and ages well, as it shows wear less than lighter shades. The choice therefore only concerns the size: Medium for daily and sports use, Large for heavier weekends.
