Absolutely perfect!!!

Ordered this bag three weeks ago, and as promised, received it today. I can not begin to to say how impressed I am with the craftsmanship, the quality and overall attention to detail. The bag is even more beautiful in person. I highly recommend this company and will buy from again without question. Thank you Custom Hide.

After a year of daily use... Looks great & held up

I purchased the Advocate 3 Compartment for my husband in December of 2017. I had it customized with his name engraved just above the clasp. My husband is a college professor and needed a bag that could hold his books, laptop and other necessities and still look professional. A year later, the bag has held up wonderfully despite daily use that involves the usual assaults of commuting, taking the bag in and out of the car, office, and classroom. The leather has scratches but looks nicely worn. The thick strap (something he really wanted) also makes it much easier to carry comfortably. This bag is a great investment and something I think he will use for many years to come!

My Scholar briefcase with custom 1945-style handle arrived today. It is beautiful. It is perfect. It is amazing. Thank you for providing a level of honest service and hand craftsmanship that seems to have all but vanished in today's disposable world. The price truly seems unbelievably low considering what you have created. I am and will continue to be a vocal fan of Custom Hide.
