A mainstay of the Mismo collection, the Army Cotton Canvas was the first material we used when introducing bags combining fabric and leather in collaboration with the Copenhagen concept store Storm back in 2008. With its earthy tones of grey, green and brown the refined, structured canvas evokes English aristocracy and wildlife hunting within the legacy collection. We’ve paired this rich fabric with a dark brown bridle leather, which makes it classy and basically works with everything.

A cotton canvas featured in that deep navy blue hue that only the Italians seem to get right. Featured in the legacy collection, It exudes tactility and sartorial elegance and is a most welcomed treat to the permanent collection. As with all our fabrics it has undergone a water repellent treatment that makes it reject immediate stains and liquids. Combined with cuoio bridle leather for a casual sense of chic as well as solid brass hardware and navy lining.

Set on a cotton warp and nylon weft, the fabric offers the best of both worlds: the tactility of the cotton and the durability of the nylon. Add to that a soft backing, which gives the fabric the perfect weight to ensure a strong and natural draping. The hue has great depth and won’t fade much over time due to the nylon. We believe this is the ideal black fabric for luggage and will be surprised if it doesn’t become a true classic. We at least intend to keep it.

Khaki canvas paired with black bridle leather is a combination not previously explored in the Legacy Collection. It’s a combo that keeps growing on us. The earthly tones of the khaki canvas with a hint of green and brown paired with raven black bridle leather create a masculine yet very classic contrast, drawing references to vintage army uniforms. Beautifully held together by the gold lustre of the solid brass accessories. A new classic is born.

The army canvas paired with dark brown leather is a well-known classic within the collection. However, over the years we’ve more than once also offered army canvas in combination with vivid tabac-hued cuoio bridle leather. Surprisingly, it completely changes the look and feel of the bag when presented with dark brown or cuoio leather trim. We actually lean towards army/cuoio being our favourite. Rich and characteristic, it offers a sense of authenticity and old-world charm that is hard to replicate among any other colour combination. Casual yet sophisticated, the army cotton canvas with its earthy tones of grey, green and brown is a true wardrobe staple.

Another development with inspiration gleaned from the vintage weavings of the Limonta archives, this terracotta palm jacquard has summer warmth and adventure written all over it. It evokes instant dreams of summer relaxation, whether the restful palm shadow is cast in vibrant Marrakech or at colonial shores of Islamorada. We’ve paired the fabric with cuoio vegetable-tanned, full-grain bridle leather for a rich vintage look and trimmed it with the solid brass accessories the Legacy Collection prescribes.

Grand Herringbone is named for the pronounced pattern of this contemporary interpretation of the herringbone weave, and for the classic age of the Grand Tour. A tactile, textured fabric for the modern luggage wardrobe that evokes a journeyed sense of elegance.
