Small outside, deep inside

At 25 cm wide it stays compact, but the 13 cm depth gives more room than most slim shoulder bags: wallet, phone, keys, sunglasses and small cosmetics all fit. The soft body settles naturally around what you carry.

Pockets where you need them

Flap pockets on each side keep small items separate from the main compartment, and the dual-pull zip opens from either end.

Shoulder or crossbody

Wear the strap short to show off the curved hobo shape, or let it out for crossbody wear when walking, shopping or travelling.

Questions

Can I wear it crossbody?

Yes. The 96 cm strap adjusts with a buckle for shoulder or crossbody wear.

What fits inside?

A wallet, smartphone, keys, sunglasses, small cosmetics and other personal essentials.

Will my bag look exactly like the photos?

Very close, but not identical. The leather is dyed by hand, so each bag has slight differences in shade and surface. These are part of the hand-dyed finish, not flaws.

How long does delivery take?

Orders are dispatched from Florence within 24 hours. Delivery usually takes 3 to 6 business days to the United States and Canada and 1 to 3 days within Europe. Shipping is free on orders over €200.

Caring for your bag

Wipe with a soft, dry cloth and keep away from rain, prolonged moisture, direct sunlight and heat. A neutral leather conditioner used occasionally keeps vegetable-tanned leather supple, and the surface will gain character as it is used. Store it in a dust bag.
