Questions Before You Buy

The body is cut from genuine first layer cowhide with a soft pebbled grain. It wears in over time and keeps a natural texture rather than a flat coated look, and the gold tone toggle and clasps set off the leather. The soft half moon body holds a neat curved line while staying supple against your side as you carry it.

Two ways. You can hold it by the short leather top handle for a quick trip in the hand or over the shoulder, or you can clip on the long detachable strap and wear it crossbody with your hands free. The strap adjusts with a slider and comes off when you only want the top handle, so the bag suits both a short errand and a full day out.

Yes. The long strap clips on at each side with gold lobster clasps and O rings, and it adjusts along its length with a slider so you can set the drop for your height. Because it clips on rather than being sewn in, you can take it off entirely and carry the bag by its short top handle alone.

The top closes with a polished gold T bar toggle. You turn the bar upright and slide it through a leather bound slot on a small front tab, then turn it to hold the opening shut. It is a smooth one hand fastening that keeps the top closed on a crowded train or a busy street while staying easy to open when you need in.

It is a small bag that sits neatly in one hand, about the size you reach for when you want just the essentials on you. It holds a phone, a slim wallet, keys and a lip balm with room to spare, and the soft cowhide body rounds out a little when packed and settles back when light. It is made for hands free days rather than for carrying a laptop.

Eight colors: black, wine red, elephant gray, pearl white, pink, chicken yellow, avocado green and golden brown. Each is cut from the same genuine cowhide, so the pebbled grain and soft hand stay the same across the range. Reach for a neutral like black or elephant gray for daily wear, or a brighter shade like avocado green to lift a plain outfit.

The interior is a single open compartment in a natural raw leather finish rather than a fabric lining, which keeps the soft half moon body light and lets it settle into shape. There is one main space for your essentials, so a phone, a slim wallet and keys sit together within easy reach once the toggle is closed over the top.

It is made for daily wear, commutes and walks into town when you want hands free and only the essentials on you. Hold it by the top handle when you are browsing, then clip on the strap and wear it crossbody when your hands are full. The small half moon body keeps you to what you need while the cowhide dresses up or down with the color you choose.
