Clipper
From £391.67
The quintessential satchel, the Clipper is one of our longest-established and best selling bags. It’s not often a bag can claim to be all things to all people, but we think the Clipper comes pretty close. Stylish, durable and capacious, the Clipper’s a customer favourite and it’s easy to see why. Briefcase, holdall, handbag, flight bag…the Clipper’s whatever you want it to be. We’ve now added a smaller size to suit those carrying smaller loads (it’s perfect for a 13″ laptop) and upgraded the interior to make it even more useful.

The Leathers
Aztec Crazyhorse
Our distinctive Aztec Crazyhorse leather is the one to choose if you like your bag to look like it’s got a few stories to tell! Hot-stuffed with oils during the tanning process, this distressed appearance leather has a lived-in look and is our very toughest leather.
Sundance Floodlight
Our signature business case leather, Sundance Floodlight is aniline-dyed side leather with a high wax content, which is infused during the tanning process, and a waxy top finish that showcases the natural grain.
Clipper’s Story
The Clipper is based on a style from our very first collection. A chance conversation with a customer in the USA led to the addition of a top handle and a change to full leather construction on the bag, turning this from a country sports bag into a charming briefcase.
This small and unexpected change gave us the bag that has become synonymous with TUSTING, and a style much copied by other brands since. We named it after the Clipper flying boats: the first aircraft to make passenger travel across the Atlantic possible, and in which Jack Tusting – from our family’s third generation – travelled on his selling missions to America.
Bespoke & Personalisation
All Tusting bags are hand-crafted in our Lavendon workshop. By special order, we can make your bag even more unique by personalising it, or we can create a bespoke colourway from our set of leathers. So whether it is a personalised message inside the bag, embossed initials or a special colour combination, don’t hesitate to contact us.
