It all began with Beth Richards, founder and creative director of Kinnon. She travelled often and discovered along the way that there was a niche and need for staple leather goods in a traveller’s life.

Believing in nothing but quality without compromising function to aesthetics were the main things on her checklist and the hunt for these items proved to be only more and more disappointing. Took matters into her own hands and born from dust was Kinnon.

Beth and the team at Kinnon have listened and worked hard to bring us this exceptionally curated collection of luxury goods for work and travel with a dash of special. Designed in Melbourne and crafted in nappa leather, Kinnon accessories come in range of colours and designs not for the ordinary.

Sweet surprises and small details are part of the Kinnon designs, which sets aside their products and makes them unique. Some notable items include The Oxley – an overnight bag cleverly designed with features that make travelling a breeze. The durable brown leather makes the bag easy to care for and will need a spray every now and then for a touch-up.

This bag has become an essential as it takes away the fuss of how to pack some of the bulkiest of things. There is a separate zipped shoe compartment at the bottom of the bag, which makes changing and packing shoes for those long flights less daunting.

The whole bag is lined with durable cotton suede lining and has a two-year guarantee. The bag has been designed to fit the maximum allowed size for international carry on, adjustable strap and large side pockets for items needed for easy access.

Pair this up with one of our favourite accessories from Kinnon, The Burton – travel wallet. The slimline travel wallet features plenty of pockets to organise passports, documents and pen with space for four cards. The unique design comes with a removable wallet to transition on arrival, complete with an additional five card spaces, clear window pocket and a money clip. The zippered exterior design keeps contents secure. Travelling in style has never been so easy.
