Bremen Business Bag Black, classic briefcase made of nappa leather

The Bremen is a classically cut briefcase made of black nappa leather with an interior fully lined in black suede. 42 × 32 × 8 cm, 1.4 kilograms, padded laptop compartment for devices up to 15.6 inches, a zipped inner compartment across the main section, plus a separate zipped divider and a front compartment with an attached leather pocket. With a depth of only 8 centimetres, it is slimmer than a classic business bag and thus fits better between office chairs and station escalators. Anyone looking for a calm, clear briefcase that avoids fashion trends and simply does its job will find the Bremen to be the right choice.

Nappa leather, soft, full-grain, with character

The Bremen is crafted from nappa leather. Nappa leather is a full-grain leather that preserves its natural surface structure. Unlike coated or corrected leathers, it displays fine, natural characteristics, a sign of quality, not a flaw. You will feel the difference immediately: nappa leather feels softer and more supple than ordinary cowhide leather, without losing any substance.

With use, nappa leather develops a natural patina. The surface becomes more uniform and takes on fine, individual traces of use, not a smooth lacquered look, but a haptic experience that evolves. With careful treatment, the black colour remains stable for years. Over time, it may lighten slightly at creases and grip points; this is intentional and typical of premium leather. Carefully selected and quality-checked by Hörner in Dresden.

Three compartments, lined in black suede

The Bremen features three independent compartments, each with its own zip. At the front, a flat compartment with an attached leather pocket for a smartphone, keys, or charging cables. Behind it, a separate divider compartment, ideal for loose documents, a magazine, or an open notebook. In the large main compartment, you will find the padded laptop section for devices up to 15.6 inches, a zipped inner pocket across the entire width, and several open slots for a power bank, business cards, or tickets.

The interior is completely lined with black suede, which protects screens and leather goods when inserted and gives the bag a sophisticated internal appearance instead of a cheap synthetic look. The two carrying handles are reinforced with double leather strips and riveted, ensuring they hold even when the bag is fully loaded. The padded shoulder strap is removable and adjustable in length, featuring carabiner attachments.

Care

Occasionally wipe the surface with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh cleaning agents and direct heat. For heavier use, a colourless leather care product is recommended once or twice a year. When not in use, store in the provided dust bag to protect the surface from dust and light.

Who is the Bremen for?

For professionals seeking a black briefcase with a classic cut that functions without needing to make a statement. For commuters between the office and home who wish to transport their laptop safely and for whom the bag is not the focus, but rather what lies within. For everyone who appreciates a slim 8 cm profile that ensures the bag doesn't bump into other commuters on the tube. Anyone looking for a bag for their first promotion interview or external appointment will find a calm, clear companion in the Bremen.

Nappa leather is a full-grain, soft leather that preserves its natural surface structure. Compared to corrected or coated leather, it displays fine natural characteristics and feels more supple. Over time, nappa leather develops a vibrant patina that highlights the individual character of the bag, making each piece unique over the years.

The padded laptop compartment has internal dimensions of approx. 37 × 26 × 2.5 cm and is designed for devices up to 15.6 inches. Slim 16-inch devices, such as the MacBook Pro 16" (35.5 × 24.8 × 1.7 cm), will fit; comparing the exact casing dimensions with the compartment will help confirm this.

The Bremen does not have a luggage strap on the back. For those who wish to use a trolley as a carrier while travelling, our Hannover business bag is a better choice.

Occasionally wipe with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Do not use harsh cleaning agents. Apply a colourless leather care product once or twice a year to keep the leather supple and prevent it from drying out.

The bag itself cannot be engraved. For personalised gifts, we recommend ordering one of our engravable writing instruments as an accompaniment, creating a harmonious combination for promotions, career starts, or anniversaries.

Delivery within Germany usually takes 2 to 3 working days. For international shipping, please refer to our shipping information page.
