Prime Hide Unveils New Seasons Leather Holdalls

Debbie Davies - Thursday, April 26, 2012

 

Prime Hide, one of the premier manufacturers of fine leather bags and wallets, has expanded its collection of leather holdalls just in time for spring and summer travelling. The company's attention to practical details and emphasis on timeless design are evident in the new collection. With Italian-style oiled leather finishes in natural and distressed textures, the bags can stand up to hard use and retain their classic good looks. Oiled full-grain leather withstands repeated folding without cracking or splitting, making it an optimal choice for sturdy leather holdalls.


The full-grain Nappa leather holdall in style 825 has a rounded rectangular body that features a detachable shoulder strap and paired carry handles that snap together for a comfortable grip. Luxury details include inner zip pockets for small items and valuables, brushed silver-tone fittings and a full fabric lining. At 20 inches wide, 11 inches high and a foot deep, the holdall serves as hand luggage or readily fits into an overhead compartment for air travel. The sturdy, satin-finish oiled leather comes in showroom black or distressed brown. 


A more capacious option is Prime Hide's style 829, a round-shouldered holdall in rugged matte oiled leather. At 21 inches long and 11 inches high, it's large enough for anything from a weekend holiday to a week abroad. Like all of Prime Hide's latest leather holdalls, the bag comes with a detachable strap and convenient padded handles. A centre zip opens the bag's main compartment; two side zips provide easy access to passports and other important documents. Available in dark chocolate brown or natural tan, this roomy Nappa leather bag is as durable as it is stylish.

Prime Hide's large, soft-sided rectangular holdall in style 827 is large enough to swallow other holdalls whole. At 24 inches wide by 13 inches tall and 11 inches deep, it provides enough room for an extended holiday, or a perfect leather weekend bag for those longer weekend stays. Despite its size, the comfortable shoulder strap and padded handles make it easy to wrangle through any number of connecting flights or ports of call. With three zips at the top, it keeps clothing neat and organised no matter how roughly the bag is handled. Antiqued brass fittings add style; matching brass feet protect the bottom of the holdall. The bag is available in an artfully distressed espresso brown and oiled black.

For a more compact version of a rectangular leather holdall that suits a weekend holiday or overnight travel, Prime Hide's style 876 comes in the same rich chocolate and tan as the slightly larger 829 bag. Also available in distressed brown Nappa leather, this bag's top zips can lock for additional security if the bag must be stowed. Smaller zipped pockets at the front and back of the holdall allow ready access to small items such as jewellery or passports. A convenient side handle makes the bag easy to move from overhead lockers. At 20 inches wide, a foot deep and a slim 7.5 inches deep, this holdall is convenient to handle.

Prime Hide's latest leather holdalls maintain the company's reputation for durable, stylish bags.
