Established in 1845, Mark Cross is one of America’s oldest luxury lifestyle brands. The company started in Boston as a saddle, harness and bridle maker before expanding its range to luxury leather goods and gaining popularity with celebrities like Ernest Hemingway, Pablo Picasso and F. Scott Fitzgerald.
Keen to honor this legacy, the new Mark Cross Equestrian Collection of duffles, totes, saddle bags and backpacks easily transitions from the stables to the street. Made in Italy from sturdy cotton canvas, each piece is lined with the brands signature red twill, trimmed with calfskin leather and finished with an exaggerated foil stamp logo in silver or gold.
As its name suggests, the Helmet Backpack ($2,895.00) has a strap on the front of the bag designed to hold a riding helmet. While the Logo Duffle Bag ($2,250.00) has a separate exterior compartment designed to carry riding boots. To fill the celeb quotient, the collection includes a “Grace Box” belt bag ($2,390.00) modeled on the Mark Cross overnight case carried by Grace Kelly in the 1954 Alfred Hitchcock film Rear Window.
