Regular price £248.00

Color: Just Travel Black
Description

Designed for journeys near and far, the Just Travel combines military heritage, luxury craftsmanship and sustainable design in a versatile travel companion built to last.

Handmade in London from repurposed deadstock nylon MA-1 military flight jackets and deadstock Halley Stevensons dry wax cotton, this sustainable weekender bag transforms exceptional reclaimed materials into a refined piece of everyday luggage. Lightweight yet remarkably durable, it is perfectly sized for the gym, overnight stays, weekend escapes, business trips, and carry-on travel.

The clean, structured silhouette is enhanced by vintage Italian leather handles and a vintage Italian leather base, creating a striking contrast between military utility and timeless craftsmanship. An adjustable padded shoulder strap with durable polypropylene webbing provides comfortable hands-free carrying, while the premium Riri zip, finished with a leather pull, offers smooth and reliable access to the spacious main compartment.

Designed with organisation in mind, the exterior features a secure front zip pocket alongside two end pockets incorporating original MA-1 waistband detailing, preserving authentic elements from the flight jackets used in its construction. Inside, the signature recycled polyester orange lining pays tribute to the bag's aviation heritage, while two Minnessak-branded vintage Italian leather pockets keep valuables organised and easy to access.

Every Just Travel bag is individually handmade to order using repurposed, reclaimed, and deadstock materials. No two are exactly alike, ensuring each piece carries its own unique character, history, and story.

Combining sustainable craftsmanship, practical functionality and understated luxury, the Just Travel is a weekender bag designed to accompany you on every journey and improve with age.
