Designed for the modern working day, The Barolo is a slimline document case that keeps business essentials neatly organised. Moreover, it avoids the bulk of a traditional briefcase. Handcrafted in Italy from full-grain, vegetable-tanned leather, it delivers a refined silhouette for meetings, commuting and everything in between, with clever features that make staying organised effortless. In fact, this reduced format illustrates how document cases fit within the wider landscape of leather briefcases, as explored in our leather briefcase guide.
Our Signature Full-Grain Leather
The Barolo document case is crafted from our distinctive full-grain Vachetta leather. Skilled artisans produce it using a traditional tanning process, and the Genuine Italian Vegetable-Tanned Leather Consortium certifies it. Less than 1.5% of tanneries in Italy receive this accreditation. Consequently, the leather develops natural depth, character, and durability. Over time, it also develops a rich and unique patina, further enhancing its distinctive personality and heritage.
Organisation That Keeps You One Step Ahead
For the items you reach for most, The Barolo includes a built-in organiser panel. It separates essentials such as business cards, a smartphone, and pens. This makes meeting preparation and travel transitions smoother. A large front pocket, secured with a press stud, provides easy-access storage for the things you don’t want buried, such as cables, notebooks, travel documents or everyday essentials.
Retractable Handles & A Detachable Shoulder Strap
Versatility is part of The Barolo’s appeal. With retractable carry handles and a detachable, adjustable shoulder strap, you can carry it as a clean, streamlined document case or worn crossbody for hands-free commuting.
Handmade in Italy, Crafted for the Long Run
The Barolo balances a slim profile with real-world capacity, finished in a structured shape that looks polished wherever you take it. Made in Italy by master craftsmen and backed by Maxwell-Scott’s 25-year warranty, The Barolo is built as a true work companion, designed to last and stay in rotation for years. This finishing detail reflects the structure and craftsmanship seen in the leather briefcases we craft today.
