These great shoulder bags may be the laptop bags with a difference that you have been looking for. Comfortable and casual, they will quickly take the shape of your body as the leather softens. With a depth of 5" (or 12.5cm), these bags are deeper than other, similar bags on the market.
We are offering this style of bag with square corners (FL) or rounded corners (FLR). Please specify which version you would like via eBay or email when you place your order. If we do not hear from you, we will post you a SQUARE-CORNERED bag (FL).
The leather is strong and durable and yet it is light in weight and will age beautifully, becoming softer, darker and more flexible over time.
The inside of the bag is divided into three separate compartments so it is easy to organise and find your things. It has two zippered pockets on the inside and a full leather flap on the outside. The internal lining is in sturdy green canvas. It has a long, adjustable leather shoulder strap.
We now offer padding in our medium, large and extra-large satchels, flap bags and messenger bags. For customers purchasing these styles as a laptop bag, this padding will help to protect your computer. While the padding is dense, it is also unobtrusive so it won't substantially reduce the internal space of the bag if you don't intend to use it for a laptop.
Each of our bags is individually made by experienced craftspeople in India using goat leather. Being handmade, each bag is different and there may be variations in the colour and texture of the leather. They are all beautiful to look at and lovely to hold.
The leather used for these bags is not chemically treated so, initially, it has a distinctive earthy smell which fades over the first 4 - 6 weeks of regular use.
Why goat leather?
Largely unknown in Australia, goat hide is an all-purpose leather that combines comfort and softness with durability and strength. Traditionally, it has been used for sturdy work wear, designed to last. It is flexible and water-resistant and does not crack or get hard when wet.
Treatment and Care
We recommend and sell a product called Billy Goat Designs Leather Conditioner which you can use to soften, protect and water-proof your bag and, indeed, all your leather goods including shoes and jackets. It can also be used on vinyl, car interiors, timber, terra-cotta, marble and slate. At just $26 for a 250ml tub, it is seriously long-lasting and economical to use.
You'll find it for sale for in the Leather Care category in our eBay Store.
We provide a wide range of other bag sizes and styles, including other laptop bags and bags with full leather flaps and we are gradually introducing new lines. Please check out our range of other great goat-leather products.
