About Us

Welcome to VNAV Leather, a brand forged from determination and passion in South Africa. Our journey is one of resilience, born out of challenging times.

When our founder, Hein de Waal, found himself grounded as an airline pilot during the COVID-19 pandemic, he turned adversity into opportunity by learning web development and building his own e-commerce platform.

During this period, Hein met Patrick, a skilled leather craftsman, and together they envisioned something unique: crafting high-quality flight bags. Their vision took flight, and soon their exquisite leather bags were available online. With the growing demand, they knew it was time for a dedicated website.

Fueled by a commitment to quality and innovation, Hein developed a fully-featured website and online store with international shipping, giving rise to VNAV Leather. This platform is now home to our finest leather flight bags and a curated selection of other premium bags.

Each product we offer is meticulously crafted, combining beauty, durability, and functionality. We cater to both pilots seeking the perfect flight bag and anyone who appreciates fine leather craftsmanship.

At VNAV Leather, we are dedicated to supporting those who take to the skies by providing the flight bags they deserve. Every order fills us with gratitude and fuels our passion to keep pursuing our dreams while sharing our craftsmanship with the world.

Thank you for being part of our journey. Explore our collection, and let VNAV Leather elevate your life with the beauty and functionality of our premium leather goods.
