The "Leona" messenger bag combines two worlds: It combines the functionality of a classic messenger bag with the soft, rounded, and feminine feel of an elegant saddle bag. For women on the go—everyday, traveling, or simply in the midst of life—"Leona" is a stylish companion with a practical soul.
Crafted from soft, vegetable-tanned buffalo leather, the bag nestles comfortably against the body. Over time, the leather develops a distinctive patina—a sign of character, everyday wear, and lasting quality. The adjustable shoulder strap allows for comfortable carrying across or sideways, ideal for hands-free travel.
Thanks to its well-thought-out interior layout, "Leona" offers space for everything you need—whether it's a notebook, sunglasses, cosmetics, or snacks. The large main compartment has a secure zipper closure, and there are additional slip and zippered pockets inside. Another zippered pocket on the back provides quick access to keys or a smartphone.
Whether worn casually with jeans or as a contrast to airy summer fashion in boho chic, "Leona" adapts to your style – understated, charming, and timeless. A bag for today, tomorrow, and many years to come.
Perhaps you have already noticed that our bags are different.
The bag made of canvas and leather is almost completely handmade in many individual steps. Our master bag makers and saddlers need years of training to be able to produce bags of this quality.
We value natural and high-quality materials and pay attention to sustainability and the environment. GENUINE BUFFALO LEATHER, 100% COTTON, a high material strength and the complete absence of synthetic fibers in our outer fabrics characterize our bags. Handmade premium quality you can feel!
Leather is a natural material and may have small imperfections. Each leather product is also patinated by hand. This complex process makes our products unmistakable. No bag can be exactly like another. Small color deviations are unfortunately unavoidable and not a sign of poor quality.

Water repellent premium canvas and our cotton lining fabrics, combining with solid brass and copper hardware-materials chosen not only for their character but for their endurance.
