We help you move smart through life.

Travelteq was founded in 2009 by Michiel van Ogtrop and Maarten van den Biggelaar. Over a period of almost 10 years they build an amazing international brand and even greater following. Travelteq has appeared many times in publications such as the New York Times, Hypebeast, Esquire and Monocle.

After a hiatus of almost two years Travelteq relaunched in 2020. We have since renewed our focus and changed our product offering, so it could very well be that you're unable to find some of the original Travelteq products in our store. However, they might come back in the future so stay updated through our social channels and newsletter.

We cannot accept returns for Holiday Bundle orders. Only exchanges are possible. For queries, contact support@travelteq.com

You are welcome to exchange a product for an alternative colour. This will be treated in the same way as a normal return, so postage fees are at the expense of the customer.

All of our bags are made using Vacchetta leather from Tuscany. Vacchetta leather is very natural with minimal treatment, allowing it to age beautifully, although it is therefore fairly delicate. Our leather has a custom-developed light coating to better protect the bag from the elements and daily use. Find more on about our leather here.

Leather is durable and sturdy, however it does require some general maintenance to keep it in top form. Our Vacchetta, although lightly coated to aid protection and water-resistance, is a natural product and susceptible to damage.

For daily use, the leather can be regularly wiped with a clean, dry cloth to remove any surface dirt and dust. Once a month, or at initial signs of wear, using a leather lotion will keep the leather soft and supple.

More details on leather care can be found on our blog.

As you know leather is a natural product. Our Vacchetta leather is tanned with natural products as well. This makes our leather some of the finest in the industry. At the same time it also makes it fairly delicate. That is why we have added a custom developed light protective coating to the leather on our bags. It will help to reduce scratches and other usage marks and makes it better protected against the elements and for life on the move.

Rain however is a different kind of external factor. Rain and leather don't go well together. If exposed to much water, you could potentially stain the leather of your bag. We therefore advice you to watch out carrying your leather bag in the rain, or consider purchasing a matching Rain Cover. If you do get caught by a downpour we advice you to dry your bag with a dry towel as soon as you can to minimise the chance of stains.

You can read more on our blog on how to look after your bag.

Our Rain Cover is designed specifically for the Briefcase. It will also fit over the Messenger and All Leather, but the shoulder strap cannot be used if the rain cover if fully closed.

Our bags will look better over time. It's one of the distinctive features of our Vacchetta leather. Depending on how you use it and how you look after it, the colour will most likely turn to a somewhat deeper tone of your chose colour. It will make your bag distinctively yours and that's what many of our clients find great about our bags.

Our nylon is Limonta® nylon. Limonta is the world's leading supplier and developer of high quality fabrics such as nylon. You won't find any better quality out there. However if you do... please let us know!

Apart from our nylon and leather we have developed a custom-developed coating to better protect the leather from our bags. You won't see it however and that's exactly how it should be.

Additionally we have added zippers and other details in high-quality shiny nickel. These details have been tried, tested and perfected over the years.

Our focus is on care and repair - never throwaway. A bag should last a lifetime, to be passed down from generation to generation. All our leather comes from cows reared in France and is processed in Italy using vegetable-tanning methods. This type of tanning generates the most natural type of leather. As well as involving fewer toxic chemicals than chrome-tanning, it also allows leather to develop a classic 'aged-leather' look, with years of use.

Our bags are made to be used everyday. However there's always a chance that your Travelteq bag gets damaged or that something breaks. No worries, we always strive to repair a bag.
