Can you give dimensions on the card case and wallet - including length, width and thickness when closed?

Thanks

Ghurka used to be very good quality. Are they still any good? Have they sourced out their merchandise to third world countries like Coach had?

Hey Chorse, was there a larger version of this bag available? I started a thread not too long ago asking about a weekend bag, but I wanted one bigger than a regular duffle to accomodate shoes and one suit if folded properly + jeans and what not for non suit wearing days. Ghurka was recommended, but I couldn't foot the >$1K price tag. Looking on the site, it looks like I'd want the Cavalier III or IV. The one you got looks great, but might be a little small for what i'm looking for. Thanks!

If only I had bought the bag and posted it earlier, because they had all the sizes in this bag, and even other iterations. That said, if I was packing this bag for myself (38R, 9.5 shoe) , I'd feel pretty comfortable fitting a suit (or jacket and trousers), a pair of shoes, a few shirts, a sweater, jeans, and a dopp kit. It's definitely good for one person for a few days if you pack carefully and well (socks in shoes kind of thing).

I can't afford/just bought luggage, but those are really nice pieces. I love the fabric. It's different but still understated.

Awesome stuff, I was just thinking how ratty my wallet is getting. Does that one seem durable? I'll most likely take it, as long as it's not super soft leather or anything.
