Setting your sights on a summer (or early fall, or spring, or winter) travel destination isn't just about where you're ultimately going, of course. It's about the menswear essentials you're packing, and naturally, it's about the stylish travel bag you use to haul said essentials.

That's where a brand like WP Standard, in my experience, can help out in a major way. WP Standard excels at everyday carry essentials like one of the best leather messenger bags, but the carefully crafted, small-batch brand also takes a worthwhile approach to EDC gear built for the long haul.

By the "long haul," I mean something as straightforward as a night or two away -- or if you happen to be a particularly efficient packer, you might be able to haul everything you need for a four-day weekend in something like the pleasingly rugged WP Standard Leather Travel Tote. Beyond that, it's just a darn-great, expertly crafted daily leather bag for your commute.

Made with rich full-grain leather practically guaranteed to get better with age, it's a reliable option if you tend to pack light, or if you want a reliable travel bag to fill up before you hit the road in a flash. Let's take a look inside, shall we?

Available in three distinct leather colors (a dark Chocolate, a sleek Desert Black and my personal favorite, a classic Tan), the WP Standard Leather Travel Tote should prove efficient and dependable for your daily haul or for overnight essentials. With a depth of 8 inches, a width of 22 inches and a height of 14 inches, it's certainly smaller than a typical weekender bag, but should still be able to handle trips out of town.

The WP Standard Leather Travel Tote also boasts brass hardware and a padded shoulder strap, while sturdy handles offer another carrying option for the busy modern man on the go (that's you!). There's an exterior pocket for quick access to needed documents or other EDC essentials from WP Standard, too.

And while this fashionable leather travel tote might seem like a splurge at $425, well, WP Standard is a brand worth splurging on (in my experience). Pack up for your next summer road trip with the proper bag for the occasion -- this one, my friends.
