Rugged sophistication meets style with our waxed canvas and leather travel companion, directly inspired by the bag our great American utility company linemen carried.
The Lineman Bag travel bag was born as a next-generation descendant of the tool bag used to transport their cable cutters, pliers, wrenches, etc. In fact, we found our original vintage inspiration bag complete with pole climbers.
Now reintroduced, as a carry-on it's equally ready for turning heads as you stow it in the overhead compartment or lugging tools (if your job description says "Lineman"). Our hearty tribute to this utilitarian classic stands tall as an heirloom-quality bag.
Features
Clamshell "doctor's bag" opening
Denim lining inspired by a Lineman's jeans
Four interior pockets
Padded shoulder strap for carrying ease when fully loaded
7" x 10" interior hanging pocket for immediate access
Outstanding craftsmanship! First impression is the whiff of perfectly tanned leather. Spacious interior with a few slash pockets in the lining for smaller items. Strap was a bit long for me. Easily adjusted at my local luggage repair. Sara in customer service is great to work with. Like all my purchases at Mission, top notch.
Bag is really well made and looks awesome. Really like the size and I wish they would do a YouTube video on it so people could see how it looks on video. The only reason I haven’t given it five stars is because I haven’t had it very long and I’m waiting to see how it will hold up. However I do not anticipate any problems really seems to be made very well. Observation not necessarily a complaint. The straps on the side snap to the bag. At first I wasn’t too happy about that but after realizing what a pain in the backside it would be to have to unbuckle those straps every time you wanted to get into the bag I know why they did it that way.

We established Mission Mercantile based on the belief that excellence is not disposable, that manufacturing techniques centuries old need not be obsolete, and that true value rests far beyond the instant gratification of how well a product looks and functions today. The true measure of quality in our committed view is how well a product looks, functions and becomes part of you … far into tomorrow.
We proudly produce all our hand-crafted wares in one of our wholly-owned North American factories that are located in Texas and the world-renowned leather region of Mexico. Our presence in both locations ensures we always have access to the absolute best materials and local expert artisans who are all committed to our Handshake Promise Guarantee. We source leather, canvas and materials known for their quality and durability from the US, Mexico, Italy and other worldwide sources.
So while most of the world is preoccupied with looking for shortcuts in an ever accelerating cycle of faster, easier, more, and repeat, our passion for distinctive leather goods and the skilled, patient craftsmanship of another era sent us looking for a longcut approach to Mission Mercantile’s materials and construction.
We use exclusively the highest quality, most durable and distinctive leather available anywhere: our leather is carefully selected by discerning eyes, hide by hide.
Your word was your bond — and a handshake was more binding than a contract. Mission Mercantile believes in that simple, reliable right-mindedness.
We are delighted to offer you free lifetime repair or replacement for issues with materials or craftsmanship. Unfortunate damage due to normal wear and tear or misuse can be repaired for a reasonable charge. Just reach out to our Shopkeeper@missionmercantile.com and we'll take great care of you.
In this present era of faster, easier, more, and repeat, the “selfie” has surpassed self-reliance and the largely surface-deep, disposable culture that prevails leaves handshake integrity a rare commodity. In many quarters, it is effectively extinct.
But for Mission Mercantile today, tomorrow, and forever, handshake integrity is our standard. It’s in our attention to detail. It’s in our uncompromising quality control. It’s in our signature 100% full-grain, vegetable-tanned leather. It’s in every antique brass rivet. It’s in our return policy. It’s in our customer service. It’s in our pledge to always make it right.
Call it a hands-forward, hands-on commitment to excellence. Satisfaction unconditionally guaranteed.
