The Safari Small Attaché is a tribute to the elegance of purposeful travel. Compact yet expressive, this crossbody briefcase is handcrafted in England for those who value simplicity, heritage, and the freedom to carry light.
Its structured silhouette is formed from Globe-Trotter’s signature vulcanised fibreboard in a rich brown tone, delivering both strength and lightness with a warm, classic finish. Natural leather corners and a matching handle bring additional depth and character, starting in a pale blush and gradually developing a golden caramel patina with every journey. Gold-tone fittings add a subtle touch of refinement to complete the look.
Inside, the soft fabric lining offers room for everyday essentials, with just enough structure for organisation and ease. Whether carried by the top handle or worn crossbody with the adjustable leather strap, the Small Attaché offers understated versatility for life on the move.
Part of the Safari collection, this piece is designed to evolve with you, capturing the spirit of purposeful travel and the beauty of a life well lived.

Vulcanised Fibreboard
The main structure is made from Globe-Trotter’s proprietary Vulcanised Fibreboard, comprising 14 layers of recycled paper, cotton, and wood pulp from sustainable sources. Bonded with zinc and compressed with steam and pressure, this material is chosen for its exceptional lightness, strength, and distinctive character. It offers lasting protection and a refined finish unique to Globe-Trotter.
Vegetable-Tanned Leather
All leather elements, including the hand-moulded corners, trims, handles and fastening details, are made from vegetable-tanned hide. This traditional tanning method uses only natural plant extracts to create leather of exceptional strength and character. Over time, it develops a rich patina, ensuring that every case becomes ever more individual with each journey.
Ethical Sourcing
All leather is ethically sourced, ensuring traceability and a commitment to animal welfare and environmentally responsible production.
Handles and Strap
Both the top handle and the crossbody strap are made from reinforced vegetable-tanned leather, carefully bonded and hand-finished for comfort and longevity.
Lining
The interior is lined with finely woven cotton or a cotton-blend fabric, selected for its softness, durability, and ability to complement the bag’s exterior palette.
Locks and Hardware
Hardware, including the clasp and strap fittings, is precision-engineered from carbon steel or solid brass and finished in gold, chrome, or other signature tones. Each component is selected for refined appearance and long-term performance.
Serial Plaque
Every bag includes a unique, individually numbered metal plaque inside. This plaque certifies authenticity and provides a permanent record of provenance.
