I was introduced to Colonel Littleton products by Dave Rees who has reviewed a few of the men’s line of exquisite handcrafted leather bags here on the Gadgeteer.

Colonel Littleton creates some of the finest bags I have ever had the privilege to carry my gear in. My 1943 Navigator bag has traveled the world with me and continues to be my EDC bag. It is a true workhorse and nearly bulletproof, receiving regular compliments as it grows old with me. But when the

I have lost track of the number of leather wallets I have gone through over the years. I am sure the same thing has happened to you… at some point they all fall apart at the seems. This problem inspired American Benchcraft to create a line of leather products that are crafted not with stitched

I had a chance to review a great little wallet from A-SLIM, the Sapphire Black Chikara. After using the wallet in real world situations I can say that this wallet is exceeding my expectations when it comes to the smaller slimmer thin billfold wallets.

Wallet phone cases have been around for a while. Not the slip-a-few-cards-in-the-back cases, but the fold-over, cover-the-screen type wallet cases. Most have an elastic band to hold them closed, but they are all fraught with difficulties, not the least of which is holding your entire wallet up to your ear during a phone call. Enter

I received news from Brian Holmes of Pad & Quill that they have two new “slim leather bags for the modern gentleman”. When I read the title of his email and then saw the images of his bags, I was a little miffed because I don’t see how these bags are for men only. 😉

Saddleback Leather Company has just announced a new line of their very popular rugged premium leather bags. They are calling it the Ugly & Limited line, but I disagree with the ugly part. These bags are made with the same quality materials and craftsmanship as Saddleback’s other bags, but they feature leather with cattle brands,

Ah, leather! Such a nice feel, and so easy on the eyes. I have always preferred it to the various synthetics. I especially like the finishes that are less polished and lend themselves to natural wear and “character building.” Recently, Mujjo has expanded their line of cases to include Apple’s newest iPhones, and they offered

It’s called the Front Pocket Pouch and it’s being described as a smaller version of the Saddleback Leather messenger bag. It’s been designed for those times when you don’t need to carry your laptop, but is large enough that it will fit an iPad mini and your other small EDC items. This small uni-sex bag

I can’t believe it’s been 13 years since I reviewed the original WaterField Cozmo bag. I carried that bag for a couple of years and then Jeanne carried it for a few more. I still have it somewhere in my magic closet o’bags and I bet it still looks just as good as it did

I can never decide if I want a case on my iPad Air or not. It’s thin and wonderful to hold without a case, but you’re at risk of damaging your tablet without one. The Sena Vettra ST Leather Case provides a functional case that manages to remain slim.

Now that you have an iPhone 6 Plus, how are you going to protect it from everyday wear and tear? Are you using a rubber bumper case? Boring… Maybe you have a snap-on plastic shell on the back. Even more boring… If you want an iPhone 6 Plus case that looks fantastic while also doubling as

The Colonel Littleton No. 43 Mailbag Briefcase is a gorgeous shoulder bag reminiscent of the mail pouches carried by pony express riders from days before email and the internet.

Over the years we’ve reviewed quite a few bags, wallets and covers from Saddleback Leather Company. Leather products from Saddleback are well known for their high quality construction, rugged good looks and their motto: “They’ll fight over it when you’re dead.” Saddleback’s latest product won’t hold your gadgets when you’re on the go, but they will
I’ve never done drugs or gotten high unless you count snorting the addictive smell of these gorgeous leather wallets from Moose Brand. Hand me anything made of leather and I automatically bring it up to my nose for a sniff. Ahhhhh… There’s something comforting about the smell of leather – good leather though, not weirdly

I was dancing around the Net and decided to swing by the Colonel Littleton website to see if he had designed any new leather creations lately. I was surprised (and a bit shocked) to see that he is now handcrafting many of his classic designs in black leather with brown trim. Some of the products that caught

The warmth of real leather pairs so well with the clean, metallic sheen of today’s electronics. I never tire of feeling and smelling this old-world material while using cutting edge technology.
