The Ratsey & Lapthorn Collection
(2025)
Finest handcrafted bags and bespoke accessories
Since 1790, Ratsey & Lapthorn has been at the forefront of classic sailmaking, blending heritage craftsmanship with innovation. Our sails have powered some of the world’s most storied vessels — from historic naval ships to America’s Cup challengers — with a reputation built on longevity, precision, and beauty with purpose. For as long as we have made sails, we have also made bags: practical companions for life on ship and shore. Today, this tradition continues as we launch a limited collection of handmade canvas and leather bags, each one a reflection of our enduring commitment to our craft.
