BELTLEY Artisanal French Patina Nile Crocodile Belly Backpack – Midnight Blue
Experience a masterpiece of artisanal leatherwork with our French Patina Nile Crocodile Backpack. This exceptional piece transcends ordinary luxury, showcasing a meticulous hand-rubbed coloring technique passed down through generations of French craftsmen. Each backpack is constructed from genuine Nile crocodile belly leather, and its defining feature is the exquisite patina finish.
The process involves skilled artisans carefully rubbing layers of deep navy and black dyes into the hide by hand. This creates a stunning, multi-toned depth where darker hues settle into the intricate grooves between the scales, while a luminous, lighter blue-grey emerges on the surface. This technique not only highlights the unique texture of every scale but also ensures that no two backpacks are ever exactly alike.
Designed for the ultimate connoisseur, this exotic leather rucksack merges unparalleled artistry with modern functionality. The spacious main compartment, lined with premium calfskin, protects your essentials, while the large front pocket offers convenient access. Finished with high-polished stainless steel hardware, this backpack is more than an accessory—it is a unique piece of wearable art.

Most of our belts go up to size 46. This is because sizes larger than 46 require a special cut of hide. We can order that hide and make larger sizes which typically takes 10-14 days.
If you require a different size or would like to request a different color, please do not hesitate to contact us at help@beltley.com
Leather
Some of our products are handmade at our workshop using old school tools, techniques and machinery. Some are made by machine.
We use two kinds of full grain leather - cow hide and alligatro skin. All belts and wallets are cow hide unless otherwise stated. BELTLEY is committed to being eco-friendly and as such only makes leather products from bi-products of the food industry. The leather is tanned by the process of vegetable tanning.
Full Grain leather is the strongest and most durable leather. It has slight imperfections that give it character and you can feel and see a grain to it. It also lasts longer and is resistant to wear and tear. PU leather is generally absent of any imperfections and has a smooth consistent look. It is common in bonded leather belts and which hardly last 3-6 months. If you're looking for leather goods that last, stay away from PU. Genuine leather is a marketing term. If a product contains at least 30% leather, it can be marketed as genuine leather. You never know what you will get with it. It may be full grain or it may be bonded leather. If you're looking for high quality leather that lasts, stick to full grain.
Some slight dye transfer can occur when new or if the belts get wet on some of our styles. This is rare and again the most common cause of this is if your belt gets excessively wet.
This will generally come out in washing the clothes. In some instances though if left unwashed for an extended period of time the dye may set.
Yes! This is a very common, natural process that occurs with real full grain leather. With time and use, your leather will break in; the oils will cause the leather to slightly darken and “age” creating a beautiful finish that is entirely unique to your product.
Leather is one of the most durable natural materials in the world. Therefore initial treatment isn’t necessary. However, we highly recommend avoiding exposure to moisture, as water is the enemy to leather and will cause the leather to break down and weaken over time. A little water won’t hurt, however throwing your wallet in the washing machine or consistently wearing your bracelet in the shower will diminish the life of your product.
