The Cotswolds Micro Case is a compact expression of Globe-Trotter’s enduring design language, reimagined for everyday use. Inspired by countryside colour and craft, it blends vibrant seasonal tones with artisanal detailing in a distinctive, wearable form.
Handmade in England from vulcanised fibreboard, the case is accented with natural leather corners and fittings. The standout feature is the woven-effect embossing on the straps, an intricate detail that nods to heritage leatherwork and rural tradition. Bright gold-finished hardware lends a refined contrast to the bold palette, while the structured silhouette keeps its shape over time.
With a fully lined interior and detachable shoulder strap, the Micro Case offers versatility for hands-free carrying and just enough space for your essentials. Ideal for elevated daily wear or travel days where style and substance move in lockstep.
Complete the look with the Cotswolds Carry-On or Large Check-In for a coordinated collection defined by textural charm and timeless character.

Vulcanised Fibreboard
The main structure is made from Globe-Trotter’s proprietary Vulcanised Fibreboard, comprising 14 layers of recycled paper, cotton, and wood pulp from sustainable sources. Bonded with zinc and compressed with steam and pressure, this material is chosen for its exceptional lightness, strength, and distinctive character. It offers lasting protection and a refined finish unique to Globe-Trotter.
Vegetable-Tanned Leather
All leather elements, including the hand-moulded corners, trims, handles and fastening details, are made from vegetable-tanned hide. This traditional tanning method uses only natural plant extracts to create leather of exceptional strength and character. Over time, it develops a rich patina, ensuring that every case becomes ever more individual with each journey.
Ethical Sourcing
All leather is ethically sourced, ensuring traceability and a commitment to animal welfare and environmentally responsible production.
Handles and Strap
Both the top handle and the crossbody strap are made from reinforced vegetable-tanned leather, carefully bonded and hand-finished for comfort and longevity.
Lining
The interior is lined with finely woven cotton or a cotton-blend fabric, selected for its softness, durability, and ability to complement the bag’s exterior palette.
Locks and Hardware
Hardware, including the clasp and strap fittings, is precision-engineered from carbon steel or solid brass and finished in gold, chrome, or other signature tones. Each component is selected for refined appearance and long-term performance.
Serial Plaque
Every bag includes a unique, individually numbered metal plaque inside. This plaque certifies authenticity and provides a permanent record of provenance.
