Real Leather Handbags with Suede Detail

Description

A neutral bag is a safe choice. It also disappears against everything else you own.

These do the opposite. The upper panel is printed suede in a bold abstract pattern, in orange, red or blue, or in the Protea design, set against a tan genuine leather base and handles.

Carry it by the double handles or sling it across you. Real leather takes daily use and comes out looking better for it, while the printed suede keeps the bag from looking like everyone else's.

If you want a bag with some personality, this is your answer. Pick your pattern and your strap.

Caring for Your Genuine Leather

Cleaning: Wipe with a clean, dry, soft cloth to remove everyday dust and dirt. For a deeper clean, use a slightly damp cloth with a mild soap, then dry immediately with a soft cloth. Avoid soaking the leather or scrubbing at marks.

The printed suede panel: Brush it gently with a dry, soft brush or cloth. Do not use soap or water on the suede, which marks easily and can lift the print.

Caring: Condition the leather every few months with a quality leather conditioner or cream to keep it supple and help prevent cracking. Keep it away from prolonged direct sunlight and heat, and out of the rain where possible. If it does get wet, let it air dry naturally away from direct heat. Store it stuffed with tissue paper or a soft cloth to help it hold its shape, and avoid plastic bags or containers, which trap moisture.

Colours may vary slightly from photos due to camera lighting and screen settings. As this is genuine leather, natural grain, marks and slight variation are part of its character rather than a flaw, and with regular wear the leather develops a natural patina over time, deepening slightly in tone. This is normal, and part of what makes each piece unique.
