London-based Troubadour recently introduced the Buddy Case, a sleek little bag that opens flat, making it easy access to access gear. It’s 6.5 inches wide and 5.5 inches tall, with an easy-access exterior pocket featuring a magnetic closure, a central pen pocket, and elastic interior pockets to keep everything organized. The Buddy Case uses recycled polyester nylon fabric and recycled polyester for the lining. The bag boasts details in waterproof vegan leather, a waterproof lining, and a metal zipper.
Troubadour treats the materials with a durable water-repellent finish. Users can also increase the water repellency by re-proofing the fabric with Nikwax® Tent & Gear SolarProof®. Like other Troubadour bags, the Buddy Case uses the same high-spec quality fabrics and construction that keep Troubadour bags lightweight and durable.
What’s more, Troubadour develops performance materials. The company aims to make great products while minimizing environmental impact. Troubadour manufactures polyester nylon fabric from recycled plastics. The company uses recycled packaging materials, and all its leather is vegetable-tanned.
Troubadour bags are known for their clean design aesthetic. The company creates bags that adapt and won’t look out of place, even in the boardroom. The faces behind Troubadour bags, Samuel and Abel, admit that they have an obsessive attention to detail. The team says inspiration struck when they couldn’t find a bag to meet their needs and decided to make bags refined enough for business and rugged enough for the outdoors. Available in blue and black, the Buddy Case is priced at $80.
