We aim to dispatch all orders swiftly and in-stock items will usually be dispatched within one business day.

We continuously make small batches of all items in our range, and most orders are sent out within just a few days of receipt. If there will be a delay of more a week before dispatch, we'll be in touch to ask if this may be a problem for you. Please allow for extra time if you have asked for your item to be personalised.

We ship everything by express service. Orders sent within the UK should arrive on the day after dispatch, except for outlying areas, and orders sent overseas will usually arrive within a week of dispatch – often much faster.

CARDINGTON'S STORY

A bag with true Tusting heritage, the Cardington has been with us in many coats since the beginning of our leather-goods brand. Currently available in two great sizes, this cute shoulder bag is named after the Bedfordshire village where the R100 and R101 airships were built in staggeringly enormous hangars.

The British equivalent of the Zeppelin airships, these incredible creations represented the golden age of travel, linking Britain to the four corners of the world. It always raises a smile that, despite being named for something so enormous, the Cardington is one of our smallest bags. It’s also one of our most popular – and it’s not difficult to see why.

Bespoke & Personalisation

All Tusting bags are hand-crafted in our Lavendon workshop. By special order, we can make your bag even more unique by personalising it, or we can create a bespoke colourway from our set of leathers. So whether it is a personalised message inside the bag, embossed initials or a special colour combination, don’t hesitate to contact us.

    Last month I bought a Kimbolton handbag in pecan and a Macbook sleeve in Lipstick. The leather is gorgeous and the Kimbolton handbag has been great and really practical. The colours are just as they are shown and the lipstick sleeve is scarlet and the softest leather you could imagine.

  • Beautiful Quality
    I am a fairly new Tusting client and I am really impressed with the beautiful quality of their bags. I also like the fact that they are reasonably priced, unlike some of their competitors, who, in my opinion, charge ridiculous amounts for their bags, and have priced themselves out of the market.

    I am really pleased with my amazing leather holdall. It's really well made and looks a million dollars! Great service, too. I can't thank all of you at Tusting enough.

  • Westminster Folio
    I bought the folio with handles, an exceptional and slim design. The interior really shines and contrasts well with the black color I chose. Definitely understated and stylish at the same time. Construction of both stitching and zippers shows it will last a long time if not outlast me! Would highly recommend.
