Our design combines the best parts of our favorite outdoorsy backpacks and urban backpacks. 

One backpack to rule them all, it features:

  • A separate compartment to keep your laptop from getting scratched
  • A front pocket that secures closed with both a zipper and a steel snap
  • Minimal seams for durability and cleaner looks
  • Lining made from upcycled denim to make it easier to clean — and it won’t bleed dye on your gear
  • Internal pockets galore: two slip pockets in the front compartment, three in the rear compartment, and two in the main compartment, along with a zippered pocket for extra security

With all this leather, the shoulder straps need a little wear to break in — they might not be flush with your body at first. But like all Bad Leather Goods, the look and comfort will only improve with time.

  • Tanned and finished in Wisconsin by Gallun Leathers
  • Hide Origin: Wild boar, full sides of US origin
  • Thickness: 6 ounces
  • Leather used for shoulder straps is tumbled for softness and comfort

All our leather is made from the hides of invasive wild boar that were trapped or hunted in the south and southwest of the United States. These hides are combination tanned in Tennessee to produce a material that has the ideal balance of density and weather resistance.

We sell three colors of leather and they're made two different ways: Cognac and Black are the full grain "Jabari" version that retains the outer layer of the animal's skin, so it's smooth while also exhibiting the most scarring and character from the animal's life.

The Waxy Boar tannage we use for the Chocolate leather is a little more velvety to the touch because it’s been slightly buffed, exposing more skin fibers. Gallun Leathers uses sandpaper to remove a tiny part of the skin’s outer layer before rolling several layers of wax onto it.

In short: the Chocolate leather is softer, shows a bit less scarring, and actually looks more textured and "worn in" when it's new.

Wild Boar Leather

All of our products are made from the hides of invasive wild boar trapped in the Southwestern United States and tanned in Tennessee.

Destructive pests that cause some $2.5 billion of agricultural damage every year, the beasts are bad, but the leather is great: the hide’s unusually dense fiber structure and combination tannage make a product that’s tough, water resistant, full of character, and unlike anything you’ve owned before.

About Bad Leather Goods

We obsess over every detail to create understated and timeless designs that balance aesthetics, durability, and function.

Testimonials

The grain is insane. Just like the product photo. Definitely a jaw dropper.

David S.

It's a really cool story, how the pigs are taking over, and we're here to stop them and turn them into leather. It's just a really cool concept, and I love this leather.

Weston Kay, Rose Anvil

It seems like tough leather and yet has a glove-like softness. Color is wonderful, lots of depth with light highlights.

Karl D.

I expected the leather to be a little flimsy, but none of that. The temper is good and surprisingly even; there's a waxy finish, the color is rich — how often do you see online photos which have been digitally enhanced only to be met by disappointment when opening the box? Not here.

Stephen O'Neil

The quality of the tanned leather is fantastic- much better than I ever imagined.

Brad Simpkins 

The leather has a rugged appearance and the most supple, luxurious feel. This is a juxtaposition I was not expecting.

Eric R

The leather is unique, so I expect some good conversations to come from people asking.

William

Love the quality — anything to help decrease the feral swine population. Only wish I could take one down myself!

Jeff Monte

The leather is so unique, way more supple than I imagined. The colour and the waxy feel are amazing.
