Founder Story
I've been fortunate to lead a career that allowed me to spend 10 years living, working, and traveling across the Middle East, Europe, and Africa. These experiences have afforded me the unique privilege of collaborating with some of the most skilled and dedicated artisans in the world. The deep relationships I've built with these master craftsmen have not only brought my ideas to life but have also enriched my journey with a profound appreciation for their art. Their unwavering passion and the timeless cultures they represent continue to inspire every piece I create.
At Eagle Falcon, our philosophy is rooted in the belief that true luxury is about more than just aesthetics—it's about creating pieces that embody quality, longevity, and a sense of legacy. Our customers are discerning individuals who understand that dressing well is about feeling good, and our products are designed to deliver both commercial and societal value by reintroducing heirloom-quality essentials into the modern world. Each handcrafted briefcase is engineered not just to last a lifetime, but to be passed down through generations, evolving into a cherished family heirloom.
My journey into fashion design began as a tech entrepreneur with a product-first mindset. Initially, I made bespoke luxury shirts for business travelers navigating the extreme heat of the Arabian Gulf. It was in Istanbul, during my four years there, that I first encountered the world of leathercraft and leather tanning—a discovery that shifted my focus entirely. Transitioning from shirts to leather goods, I dedicated six months to meticulously designing and developing prototypes of minimalist briefcases, laptop sleeves, and wallets. I personally tested each prototype, carrying them daily to assess their comfort, functionality, and durability. The response was immediate and overwhelming—my very first portfolio briefcase was sold before I could even complete the pitch.
An Eagle Falcon briefcase is not just an accessory; it's a statement of power, confidence, and individuality. Designed to complement both a tailored suit and business casual attire, each piece is crafted to exude a sense of authority while allowing the wearer to express their unique style. Our leather goods are the perfect blend of sophistication and boldness—whether it’s a strikingly colored briefcase paired with jeans and loafers or a sleek, all-black duffle for the discerning traveler.
Every Eagle Falcon bag is engineered to stand the test of time, developing a rich patina and character with each passing year. Our commitment to exceptional craftsmanship ensures that our products not only meet but exceed the expectations of the most discerning professionals and executives.
The origins of our leather
Our commitment to excellence is evident in our choice of materials. We source our materials directly from Istanbul, ensuring each product is crafted from the finest, locally-procured vegetable-tanned leather. Our meticulous selection process involves:
Rigorous inspection of numerous hides, choosing only those of supreme quality.
Handpicking exquisite mustard yellow leather from Istanbul's renowned tanneries.
Turkey's esteemed position as a leading leather producer, second only to Italy in Europe, underpins our quality promise. The roots of Istanbul's leather industry trace back to 1453, with the establishment of the first leather district near the historic Topkapi city walls. This legacy of quality and innovation continues to define Turkey's leather industry, known for its expert knowledge, cutting-edge technology, and eco-friendly production.
The origin of our “Kutnu” lining
Our products are distinguished by their unique kutnu linings, a vibrant, multi-colored fabric steeped in history. Handwoven on traditional looms using naturally dyed threads, kutnu was once the esteemed 'palace fabric' of the Ottoman Empire, a symbol of prestige for travelers on the ancient Silk Road. Each meter of this fabric is a testament to a day's labor by skilled craftsmen, a reminder of our dedication to preserving artisanal heritage in every briefcase, bag, and wallet we create.
