Missouri Cobalt Blue Leather Shoulder Bag

Color
 
£92.00
 

Our classic small cross body bag, crafted using rich Cobalt leather.

We love this small satchel style, and wanted to create a softer version, using the same supple, study, vegetable tanned leather which we use for our belts. 

Measuring 19 x 15 x 5 cm, and with a strap adjustable between 128 and 137 cm, the vegetable tanning process beautifully preserves the organic past life of the material, creating a natural, characterful, finish, which will wear beautifully, taking on personality and charm with use. 

Completed with a silver finish turnlock closure for accessibility and security, the minimal design aims to be an easy every day accessory.

Always lovingly handmade in our London workshop. 

Recently we have created a small run of accessories using the robust Italian vegetable tanned leather which we use for our Classic belts; in addition to this shoulder bag, we have our minimal Card Holders, elegant Glasses Sleeve, and timeless Billie Phone bags available.

The leather we choose is vegetable tanned, which means it is produced in the most natural way possible. This highlights the natural grain and texture, as well as growth marks and scars, beautifully preserving the organic story of the material, which you will now add to.

Chroma/Roam Our colourful leather accessories are very low maintenance; try to avoid getting them completely wet, and they can be cleaned with a soft brush, or a damp cloth. Designed to be durable, the solid colour finish can conceal a few more bashes than the natural grain leather but they never say no to a good going over with a leather cleaner and a clean cloth.

There are sealant sprays available, which do help protect your leather goods and can also help protect colour transfer onto lighter coloured clothing. 

Missouri - A full grain, natural finish, this leather's charm comes as it is used, aged, and gathers memories.

We’d recommend a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth to give it a gentle clean, and most small scratches can be polished out with a clean, soft cloth. If you feel it’s in need of some extra affection, you might like to use a leather conditioner - look out for one containing beeswax and/or natural oils.

Try not to let your bag get wet, if it does, towel it and then allow it to dry naturally - away from heaters - and it might be worth giving it a little condition after. 

To us, it’s important that the leather we use aligns with our values. Alongside creating long lasting, timeless products, we ensure we minimise our impact on the planet, by crafting our pieces responsibly.

All of our leather is supplied by tanneries who are audited and certified by the Leather Working Group.

The Leather Working Group is the world’s largest leather sustainability program. LWG has identified environmental best practices in the industry and audits tanneries to assess the environmental performance of leather manufacturing facilities – and certifies those that meet the standards.
