All Horween Leather. All DEFY.

For years, people have asked us: “When will you make a full-leather Bucktown?” We heard you. But we didn’t just want to do it—we wanted to do it right. That meant more than covering the Bucktown in leather. It meant completely re-engineering one of our most iconic silhouettes using an entire hand-picked side of Horween's exquisite Rookery leather—an ultra-premium, refined-yet-rugged hide made right here in Chicago, just like we are.

 
Crafting the Rookery Bucktown wasn’t easy. In fact, it was one of the most demanding design challenges we’ve ever taken on. Every curved piece had to be skived by hand—thin enough to shape and flex, thick enough to hold and endure. Strategically placed XPAC reinforcements were precisely cut, bonded, and hidden within the build—adding strength where it matters most, without adding bulk or compromising elegance. Every structural detail was considered with longevity in mind.

We made the decision to construct the back panel from MIL-SPEC Ballistic Nylon—not just for comfort, but for performance. It’s non-slip on the body, allows for airflow, and ensures there’s zero chance of leather dye transfer onto clothing. It’s one of many closely considered details that help this all-leather Bucktown stay true to its function while elevating its form.


The Rookery Bucktown is not mass-produced. It couldn’t be. Each piece is built by hand in our Chicago workshop by people who obsess over every stitch, every seam, and every cut of leather. Bags of this caliber don’t get made quickly. Or often. But when they do, they speak for themselves.




And yes—this is a $898 bag. But it’s one you’ll own for decades. It’s the sum of rare materials, relentless prototyping, and human artistry. It’s our answer to years of demand. It’s our ode to leather. And it’s finally here. Very limited supply. No shortcuts taken. No compromises made.
We’re beyond proud of what we’ve built.
