Wow! Absolutely mind blown.
This is the most beautiful wallet I have ever had. I’ve been wanting more quality over quantity products and this is the perfect wallet. This wallet tops Tory Burch, LV, Chanel, Prada. The quality of this wallet, 100% Tuscany leather that molds beautifully over time. Exactly what I wanted. I pray that many years from now, they are still selling this. Von Baer is quiet luxury brand who doesn’t sell out to local stores. Absolutely amazing. The quality shocked me.
Several months in, the bag has picked up a little character but still looks great. I use it most weekdays and haven't felt the need to switch to another work bag.
I use my Von Baer City bag daily and it still looks pretty much brand new. It’s durable, elegant, and very well made – has that premium feel you don’t often get even at this price. Got a few compliments already, both at work and when travelling.
Ordered the wallet 3 months ago and its still perfect, leather quality is really good, my old wallets would be falling apart by now lol. Shipping was fast too which was nice. Definitely buying more stuff from you
Elegant, slim, and incredibly well-made. The leather feels luxurious, the design is functional, and it fits my laptop perfectly. A perfect blend of style and practicality!
I bought this bag a few months ago and can with full confidence say that it is the most beautiful bag I have ever seen. Every time I wear it out people stop to ask me where I got it from. The company management is also incredible as well and the origins behind the brand make you feel that you have purchased the best hidden gem.
Unexpected gift from co-workers when I got promotion that required me to leave the office I had worked in for over 15 years. The person who organized the gift giving had been gifted remembered how much I liked the one she got in Brown for Mother's Day last year. This is the nicest purse I've ever owned in my professional working years. Really love the color and leather the bag is made out of. I have the black. This bag holds everything I need to survive a long work week-wallet, eyeglasses cases, makeup bag and my work and personal cell phones and a small pad of paper with numerous pens. Big fan of how the purse stays on my shoulder when I'm walking. Have had numerous compliments on the purse from co-workers and friends. Youngest daughter keeps asking to borrow it for date night with her boyfriend to which I say NO! Thanks to the folks who gifted this to me, I now know what to ask for Christmas- a matching wallet.
It has passed the two-year mark and still in good shape. And yes, I use it frequently because it's one of my favourite belts. It's just really a good belt.
I'd seen my gf checking out this bag about two months ago. I really was praying she wouldn't go ahead to buy it herself. Thankfully, she didnt. You can't imagine the look of surprise on her face when I gave it to her yesterday for her 27th birthday.
When my friend recommended I get this particular briefcase from Von Baer, I couldn’t help but wonder why he was so keen on them, He never sings the praises of any brand or company, no matter how good they are. So, of course, I was a bit surprised. But now, I get it. I’ve been using it daily for almost a year and it still looks as good as new. The leather is thick and sturdy and even the hardware still shines like new. It’s roomy enough for all my work essentials, which one of my major priorities along with style, but yet, it doesn’t feel too bulky. It’s such a serious upgrade from my last bag.
The straps are pretty comfortable even when the bag is full and the leather is quality. What surprised me most is how streamlined it still looks even with all my gear inside.
I been using this wallet for a few months now and Im really impressed with the craftsmanship. The leather is holding up really well which is such a relief. It fits all my cards, cash and even a few coins without becoming bulky. The snap closure is secure, and I havent had any issues with it opening accidentally.
It’s such a reliable bag. Almost two years since I bought it and still in good shape. All I do is clean it occasionally with the leather cream I bought along with it.
Bought this wash bag for my husband’s birthday. He initially felt I was playing a trick on him by buying him a women’s makeup bag. Funny enough, in less than two months, he’s become really obsessed with the bag. Any small item he doesnt wanna go searching for later, he puts inside it. Was certain he’d find it useful and I was right. Now, I am thinking of getting one for myself. Since the lining is waterproof, it’ll def meet my needs.
This is a leather bag for all seasons and weathers. I've been using it frequently for the past two years and if didn't tell you, you probably wouldn't know it's that old.
It’s been a few months of using this bag, it’s so on point. The leather feels premium, and it fits my laptop and other work essentials perfectly. Love the timeless look too.
How versatile can one leather travel bag be, right? Well, this bag has proved me wrong. I work in finance, so I need a bag that looks professional. This fits the bill perfectly. It's sophisticated yet casual enough for after-work drinks. Then, on weekends, I use it for gym sessions. These days, I am also heading out to the gym early in the morning before heading to work and this bag still fits the bill cos it is suitable enough to be seen with me even when I am all dressed up for work. And the compartments... they are a game changer. Seriously, how many travel bags come with a special laptop sleeve? Business trips, gym days and even weekends away, it does it all! And, yes, I am aware that I am probably overusing the bag. But yet, the leather remains solid. It still looks new despite frequent use. Best accessory investment I’ve made this in the past few years! I don't do reviews but this time, I just had to.
If ur tired of bulky wallets, GET THIS! It's slim but holds everything. The coin pocket is super handy & I love how it looks. Had it for 6 months now & its aging beautifully. 10/10 would buy again!
I’ve been using this wallet every day for a few months now, and it’s holding up great. The leather has developed a nice patina, which gives it a lot of character. I got the classic tan, and it goes with everything. The card slots are just the right size and the cash compartment is roomy enough for all my bills. The RFID protection is an added bonus…
Earlier this year I began searching for a top quality briefcase for my son who is graduating law school. Of course I wanted the very best briefcase money could buy, and after several months of extensive research online I’m pretty sure that I found it in the form of the No.1 briefcase from Von Baer. I ended up ordering one in elegant black with a tin of Von Baer leather conditioner. The case arrived about a week later, and the shipping box was badly damaged. Upon opening the box and inspecting the case it was obvious that something had actually penetrated the sturdy shipping box and damaged the beautiful briefcase that was inside. I immediately went to Von Baer’s website to try and get some customer support for this matter, and was pleasantly surprised and very much impressed when a Mr. Igor Monte started chatting with me about the problem -and even called to verify some information and let me know personally that he was very sorry about the rare, but still unfortunate occurrence of damage during shipping, and that he would be happy to immediately send me another bag. Igor Monte just happens to be a founder and owner of Von Baer! That really is an incredible example of unparalleled customer service. That new No.1 briefcase in elegant black arrived about a week later, and it is nothing short of a stunning work of art in Italian leather that not only looks like a million bucks, but will undoubtedly provide many years of service for my son. I have to say that I just love everything about this company -from their commitment to environmental responsibility and responsibly sourced materials, to helping sustain and promote centuries old artisanal leather craft in Italy -Von Baer really is the best. I’ll definitely recommend Von Baer to anyone interested in purchasing the very highest quality leather goods available. Thanks
I’e been using this wallet every day for almost two years now, and I’m really happy with it. The leather has aged beautifully, and it still looks as good as new. Plenty of space for my cards, and the coin pocket is a nice addition. Would recommend this wallet to anyone
Bought this cream along with the no.1 briefcase cuz my leather laptop bag was looking really really worn out. It's an expensive bag I've been using for close to 3 years. Used this cream and wow! Bag looks brand new. Like, seriously, I can’t believe it. Very happy with the result
I don’t usually spend even half as much on bags but this one was worth every penny. The leather is rich, with a grain that feels nice to touch. And it handles wear with grace cos after a few months, it still looks brand new. The inside layout is practical, with enough space to keep my clothes organized and wrinkle-free. It’s elevated my travel experience in ways I didn’t expect fr.
Been using this briefcase for a few months now and it’s everything I was looking for. The leather is ageing well and I can already tell that it’ll be my companion for a while. It’s just the right size to fit my essentials without feeling bulky. I think I also really appreciate the sleek design because it makes it look professional without being too flashy. It has also held up well against the occasional rain shower. I ensure to leave it to dry anytime it’s wet. I think that’s another reason it has stayed in great shape even with the contant use and battle against weather elements. Quality leather products require to be used with care anyway.
I purchased this bag for my wife as she was in need of a new travel bag. However, she's not a fan of mass produced, overpriced bags that you pay high dollar for merely because of a name or initials stamped all over the product. Initially, when I ordered the bag, Igor reached out to me with recommendations on font and location for her initials. It was evident that VB were going above and beyond to ensure I was happy with the finished product. Within a couple days the product showed up at our door. At first sight this bag was everything she could have hoped for and more. The leather is supple and soft, the stitching is stout and elegant at the same time, the lining is soft and sturdy, and the zippers are durable YKK zippers. I can tell that this will be a bag that she'll be able to carry for many years to come. Overall, Igor and Albert knocked this out of the park and have customers for life.
I’ve been using this laptop bag for about two months and I'm really liking it. The leather is thick, the design is great, it’s professional without being too showy, has quite the space. I also appreciate the length of the shoulder strap. I'm a tall guy and I usually struggle to find bags with the perfect or close to perfect length for me. It’s absolutely a great buy.
I can easily fit my laptop and all my work items, and it still looks slim. The quality is also impressive and I love that it’s handmade in Italy. I don't mind paying more for handmade stuff..
Bought it for my mum shortly after getting her the leather tote bag. She's been using the bag for over a year and says the cream has made it easier to maintain the bag. I know she carries it a lot and for real, it still looks good.
The first time I saw a Von Baer product was two to three years ago I think. It was with one of my friends while I was in the US. It looked so cool so I asked her about it and she told me the name. Went home that day and searched up the brand. I immediately liked most of the items I saw but as a broke exchange student buying anything was not an option. Thankfully, this same me bought an even more expensive Von Baer bag withut worrying about the cost. I so loved the packaging of the bag when it arrived, it was giving expensive. As for the leather, whether the purse I saw that day or my bag, the quality has remained the same
Ive had this wallet for a few months now and it has held up beautifully. The leather is aging gracefully, thats for sure. The quality is fantastic with every detail crafted to perfection. I also appreciate the spacious compartments cos they fit all my cards and cash with ease.
As a leather enthusiast, I can vouch for this wallet's quality. Full-grain leather is thick yet supple. Money clip is sturdy and convenient. Pricier than average, sure, but the craftsmanship justifies it. Developing a beautiful patina with use - 11 months of use to be exact. Excellent attention to detail in stitching and edges. It is a worthwhile investment for those who appreciate fine leather accessories
Amazing backpack! Ive been using it every day for work and it still looks brand new. Even the engraving of my favorite quote isn't fading. The leather feels better with time and it holds my laptop securely. Highly recommend it to anyone looking for a stylish yet functional bag.
Terrific materials, smart design -- a joy to carry. Compact form factor, one that encourages carrying what is essential. I found room for 14" laptop, power supply, wallet, glasses case, essential phone charging cord, pens and business cards. As beautiful as it is, I anticipate it will last for many years.
I love everything about this bag. It is a purchase I am so glad I made. Not like the money was something I could part ways with easily but I was already so tired of cheap laptop bags/briefcases and the issues that come with them after a few months of usage. But I can already tell that this bag will be different. I am certain it durable. I checked every part of it thoroughly and used it for two weeks before deciding to drop my review.I highly recommend it. The only reason I am giving it four stars rather than 5 is that there was a slight delay in delivery.
Its quality is undeniable! The leather is thick and it has that kind of high-level craftsmanship that I dont see often these days. My suits ad shirts have never arrived with a crease. What I appreciate most is the attention to detail, every zipper, pocket, and seam feels intentional. Frequent business trips mean I need reliable gear and having used this bag for the past few months, I know it’ll be a reliable companion for years to come.
Experience from start to end has been great. Bag was delivered quickly with the requested specifications. Gorgeous in-person, and serves it's purpose wonderfully. Excited to have this bag for many, many years
Bought this wallet a few months ago. The leather quality is top-notch, but it was pretty stiff at first. Took about a month of daily use to really soften up. Now it's perfect. Love the rfid protection for travel. Only downside is the price, but you get what you pay for - quality
The prices seemed a bit overboard for me the first time I checked out the website. Interestingly, in the past two years, I have become what one can call a regular customer. This is my latest buy from this brand and I am no longer surprised by the quality of every single product I buy. The leather is high quality and the quality of craftsmanship is visible in every stitch. When you take into considering other points like the rfid blocking lining, the deal is sealed! It’s another 5 stars rating from me.
I travel internationally for work frequently and this bag has quickly become my go-to. The leather is of outstanding quality and it still looks pretty new after several months of use. It’s the perfect size for my 16” laptop and I have come to really appreciate the separate compartment for documents, now I dont have to deal with dog-eared documents. The shoulder strap and handles are comfortable even when the bag is fully loaded. One other thing I really love about this bag is the wa the leather is ageing. Somehow somehow, it looks even better than when I first got it.
This briefcase is worth every penny. I was a bit hesitant because of the price and also because I thought it’d only suit men but once it arrived, all my doubts disappeared. The leather is top-notch and the craftsmanship is evident in every stitch. It’s spacious enough for all my work essentials and personal stuff plus I get compliments on it all the time. I’ve had it for a few months now and it’s holding up beautifully.
Been using this bag for about a year now and it still looks as good as the day I got it. I love how the leather has aged, it’s developed a nice patina that gives it character. Plus, it’s very practical. I carry my 15-inch laptop, 10-inch ipad and it fits everything else I need for work. The strap is comfortable for long commutes too. It's nice that it has those protective metal feets. Overall, an excellent product!
After a year of daily use, this briefcase still looks almost new. The leather has aged beautifully and the form remains intact. I don’t see myself needing another briefcase for a long time.
It is so perfect for everyday use cos its slim and stylish. And honestly, you don’t know how much you need a cardholder until you have one. That convenience is unmatched! I have had this cardholder for a little over three months and wow, what difference it has made!
Been using the City bag for a few months now, no sign of wear so far. Very stylish and equally comfortable to carry. The shoulder strap is comfortable, and it’s surprisingly spacious, much more than I expected… I was comparing it to my old bag not knowing that this looks slimmer while accommodating more. It’s so interesting. If you live in New York or some other really busy city and need to commute long distances, this bag will serve you realy well.
Was expecting it to be heavier but it’s actually quite light considering the size and material. The leather is soft but not in a way that seems cheap. Its' been a few months of frequent use and it still looks perfect. The color (classic tan) is beautiful and goes with almost everything. Would definitely recommend it
This money clip wallet is gorgeous! The leather is so soft and yet strong at the same time… I don’t know how better to explain it. The color is perfect too. I get compliments on it all the time. Of course, it’s very functional. Thats why I got it in the first instance. I was worried about my money slipping off from the clip but that has never happened and I've been using the wallet for over three months
I travel a lot for work, so having a reliable wash bag is essential. This bag has been my travel buddy for the past six months, and it still looks brand new! The leather is top-notch, and I love how it’s aging, it’s got this beautiful worn look that makes it feel even more personal. I chose the black colour, and it really does go with everything. The two compartments are perfect for keeping things organized. I even got a little toothpaste leak, but thanks to the waterproof lining, nothing was ruined!
I've had many wallets over the years, but this one takes the cake. The attention to detail is impressive, from the stitching to the edges, everything is perfect. Yes, it's expensive but considering the quality, I expect this to last for decades. The leather is already developing a beautiful patina after just a few months and is now my favourite accessory
This is how you know a bag well thought through before being designed
I bought the City bag specifically for business trips, and it hasn’t let me down. It’s got enough room for my laptop, documents, and even some smaller travel essentials. Plus, it still looks sleek and professional. The shoulder straps are pretty comfortable even when the bag is heavy. So, it's easy to carry around. I also really like that it has metal feet so it doesn’t get scuffed when I set it down. Von Baer really thought of everything!
I’ve used it on multiple trips now and still looks as good as new. Really fine leather and very spacious to accommodate all my travel items. would recommend it to anyone!
I purposely waited several months to use the suit bag, and effectively ‘test’ it, before reviewing. I have to say, everything has met and surpassed my expectation. The quality of the leather, as well as the stitching, is impeccable, and the functionality of the product is great. It is precisely what I wanted and looked for so long to find. The customer service from Von Baer was dedicated and helpful, and this coupled with the brilliant product I have received, leaves me with no doubt about purchasing from Von Baer again.
Absolutely the most finely crafted bag I’ve ever seen. Everything about it screams quality. I hope to use this bag for many years to come. And from the looks of it, I will. The color, leather, the zippers, right down to the canvas interior are crafted by hands that know what they’re doing and an eye for detail. Just buy it already!! You won’t be disappointed!!
I didn't set out to buy a gym bag, travel bag or whatever but when I came across the ad for this, I just knew it... I can fit my gym shoes, clothes, towel, and even protein shaker in here with room to spare for even way more stuff. The separate laptop pocket is perfect because I head to the gym straight after work. Of course, it's my go-to for short trips as well, and despite lugging it around for over a year now, it still looks as good as new.
This holds everything I need on a day to day basis and fits perfectly in my front pocket. The leather is soft and supple and feels warm in my hand every time I hold it. A high quality wallet that I will enjoy for many years.
I have owned a couple of garment bag weekenders, and I can say with question that the Von Baer Grand is the nicest I have owned. The leather is high quality and will patina nicely over time. The cotton lining is perfect, and although some may not like the black, I think that it is great. Additionally the layout is superior to the standard layout. I am looking forward to using this bag for many years to come.
Reply from Von BaerThank you, Mark, for being a wonderful customer 💗. We always try to do our best!
It’s been through a lot already - E.g. coffee spills, being stuffed under plane seats, and it still looks amazingg. The leather is incredibly resilient and it cleans up nicely. I recommend you get the leather cream cos it definitely gets the job done. The interior is spacious without being bulky, which is a huge plus. If you’re on the fence because of the price, I’d say go for it. It’s an investment in style and durability.

My bag keeps up with me!
I’m always on the go because I work between Dublin and Malahide and my city bag is everywhere with me. It is big enough that I usually put my laptop, documents, makeup, and even put a book and snack in there at times. In the past few months, I have used the bag so much that one would almost feel pity for it. Yet, it is still in good shape. You can hardly tell that I've been using it for that long, let alone using it so hard.
After going through several bags in a few years, I decided to invest in something that would last. This bag is solid, there’s no other way to describe it. The leather is thick and feels durable and also the construction feels incredibly sturdy. Is spacious without being oversized and the pockets are exactly where they need to be. I didn’t go for the laser engraving because honestly, the bag stands out just fine on its own.
Let me just say this bag is a stunner. It’s got that kinda leather that you know will age like fine wine, you can smell it when you first open it, the leather smell just hits you. I’ve had it for about 3 months now, and it’s holding up really well, except a few scratches here and there - I could be more careful…. Fits my 16" MacBook Pro with no problem at all. I’m particularly impressed with the zippers—they glide smoothly, which is usually my issue with bags.
I bought this briefcase because I was tired of replacing cheap ones every few years. Out of the box, it was a bit stiff which concerned me at first. But after a couple of weeks, it started to soften and mold to my use. Now, it’s become a part of my daily routine. The leather looks beautiful and I’m certain it can only get better with age
In Hong Kong, style and function need to go hand in hand (I learnt this the hard way after moving back over 9 years ag. You just can’t afford to give up functionality for style), and this briefcase nails it. The leather is definitely top quality, with a sleek design that’s perfect for a professional setting. It’s roomy enough to fit all my stuff without being bulky, which i exactly what I need for navigating this busy city. I opted to have my name engraved on the bag. I didn’t know it’d make so much difference but the subtle personal detail it adds is something I really like.
The craftsmanship on this case is impeccable! But I wish it had a bit more room. I have to be picky about which cards to carry, which isn’t always convenient. That said, theleather is lovely and it’s been holding up well even after almost two years. If you don’t carry a lot, this is perfect for you.
I am pretty skeptical about buying all these fancy wheeled suitcases because the wheels are usually the first thing to develop some kind of fault. This has been the only exception for me in almost two decades. I've been using this suitcase frequently for over a year because I travel a lot on business trips and it still looks as good as new... except very few scratches here and there. The wheels are still as sturdy and functional as when I got it.
This is exactly what I was looking for. A classic, durable and very well-made wallet. The rfid-blocking feature is nice, though I haven’t had a chance to test it. What really stands out is how sturdy it feels. I’m confident this wallet will last for many years to come.
I've been patronising von baer for over 5 years now. they just never miss. My brown briefcase and keyholder are still in great condition even with frequent usage, i want to belive that this bag will be just a top-grade.
Just received my laptop bag, I love it! Love how my name on the bag, how spacious it is, the specific color. I am very very satisfied with what I got. I'll likely provide an update after using it for a few months but I think it should still be in good codition because the leather feels like quality stuff. I wouldn't expect less, anyway.
Solid Craftsmanship, it is very worth the Investment
Bought this as a gift for myself after I got a promotion. Needed something sleek but practical. The craftsmanship here is top top and I'm not even trying to exaggerate. The leather has that rich smell and feel you only get from real full-grain leather. I wasn’t expecting it to be this durable but it has been almost two years of active use and it still is in great shape
I deliberately did not post a review a couple of days after receiving this wallet, because initially many products can look great and decent. I've been using this card case for a few months now, and I can confidently say that it’s holding up beautifully. The leather has started to develop a nice patina, and it is aging very gracefully.
After a few months of use, it has become my everyday companion and yet retains its feel. My only regret is not buying it sooner! If you also appreciate fine leather goods, this wallet is a must-have.
