This is the 2nd edition of the Thin Front Pocket Leather Backpack with a few changes that I think you'll love. The original backpack was everyone's favorite, and we rarely got a complaint. Still, I made some slight changes that may be overkill, but they're more consistent with our lowest possible seam-feet approach to design.
---This slim leather backpack is still built without breakable parts like zippers, magnets, velcro, or snaps. It is still reinforced at all stress points with hidden polyester straps and strong rivets. At Saddleback Leather Co, we build full grain leather designs that stand the test of time. Breakable parts are things you find in a department store backpack, not here.
---The body of this slim leather backpack is still only built with two big solid pieces of leather, but now all three front pockets of the backpack are all made of just one solid piece of leather. You see, the fewer seams a leather backpack has, the fewer seams there are to start a rip. And not only that, but we only allow 5 stitches per inch of our seams, so there is more leather between holes and, therefore, fewer holes to start a tear. I once interviewed a second-generation sailmaker in New Zealand. He referred to a sewing machine as a perforation machine and said the fewer holes, the stronger the sail. That stuck with me. It's the same with this leather backpack.
---This leather backpack is entirely made of full-grain leather, the strongest and most water-resistant leather. And it's a little thicker than boot leather. We could have saved money, used something less pricey like top grain leather, or saved even more and made a genuine leather backpack. But we didn't worry about the price of the best natural leather. We wanted to make something that would last, so we used the best full grain leather.
---The Thin Front Pocket Leather Backpack has three exterior pockets with a hidden pocket behind them for quick access or for sticking in longer things. The main backpack strap has a hole at the very tip just in case your bag is way, way overstuffed. The shoulder straps have an adjustable and comfortable shoulder pad to distribute the backpack's weight.
Looks great (smells good, too). Obviously well built. Much larger capacity than I anticipated, which is nice. Can't wait to use it!

I love my back pack. The size is perfect for my needs, and I've received many compliments from strangers, as well many of them recognizing it as a Saddleback bag. Several years ago, I purchased a large backpack, and a briefcase for my sons as Christmas presents. I finally bought a present for myself. All I can say is they make perfect presents for anyone interested in quality. Great work and as always, thank you. D. Nix, San Antonio, TX

I absolutely love my saddleback!! Your quality and craftsmanship is the best. You know from the second you open the box and smell that amazing leather that you made the right choice! I’ve bought several backpacks for family and friends who treasure your products. Keep up the excellent work!! Stanley

I have way to many SBL bags. This one is by far my favorite for daily carry. If I’m traveling I prefer something larger. But for everyday, this one is the winner. And it looks great. I have it in chestnut.

This little back pack does it all for me. Holds my every day carry items, laptop or Ipad along with all the extras. It's my go to back pack. I loved my bucket BP but had to give it up for this thin FPBP. I got the DCB and I am loving it.
