Saddle bags

It’s a beautiful summer day. You’re on a relaxing bike ride with your loved ones—and then this happens: Your front tire has gone flat, even though you checked the tires before setting out. So for now, you can’t go any further. But wait—luckily, you don’t leave anything to chance. A quick reach into your new saddle bag is all it takes, and you have the right repair kit right at hand. You pump up the tire again, and you’re ready to go. Once you’re back on your bike, you’ll quickly realize you can’t do without your Gusti Leather saddle bag.

Compact, practical, and stylish—leather saddle bags

They’re handy, practical, understated, and attractively designed: our leather saddle bags. Whether classic or rustic, they suit many types of bikes and offer plenty of space for your essentials. Do you like to be prepared for any mishaps? Our saddle bags have room for items like a repair kit, spare tube, a small tool set, and first-aid supplies.

Or do you prefer to travel light as a minimalist? That’s no problem either. Gusti Leather saddle bags offer a practical way to safely store your smartphone, keys, and wallet on summer evenings as you ride into downtown.

These bike bags impress not only with their functionality but also with their attractive design, which makes each one a stylish accessory for your bike. Another plus: Gusti Leather saddle bags are available in various styles and sizes and can be mounted quickly.

Goat leather, Cowhide leather, or Buffalo leather—which type of leather best meets your expectations?

Our selection includes saddlebags made from three different types of leather. You can choose from:

• Goat leather,
• Cowhide leather, and
• Buffalo leather.

Saddle bags made of Goat leather are usually a bit stiffer at first, but they quickly become supple and soft with regular use. Models made of Cowhide leather and Buffalo leather, on the other hand, are slightly more robust than those made of Goat leather due to their naturally sturdier material. Even after some time, these leathers still feel a bit firmer in texture, although they naturally become softer as well. So decide for yourself which leather best meets your expectations for your new saddle bag.

Our product lines—to which these items belong—are as diverse as our product range, each with its own distinct focus. The saddle bags in the “Gusti Leder nature” line, for example, are characterized by manual manufacturing processes. This line exclusively includes Gusti Leather products that are handcrafted in small workshops in India from vegetable-tanned Goat leather. Here, “unique textures” isn’t just an empty phrase—every single product has its own distinctive characteristics.

Meanwhile, saddlebags from the “Gusti Leder studio” line impress with their functionality paired with a timeless, urban style that’s right on trend. Both the Cowhide leather and Buffalo leather used for the products in this line are chemically tanned with chrome in certified workshops in India, making them particularly durable and dimensionally stable.

Gusti Leather works exclusively with facilities in India and Italy that operate in accordance with international labor and human rights standards. To further ensure a consistently high quality of materials in our leather products, we commission random sample tests at independent laboratories at regular intervals and conduct unannounced visits to the workplaces to verify compliance with the contractually defined standards. In the event of violations of these standards, we take decisive action and immediately terminate our partnership with the affected businesses.
