Authentic Hand-crafted Vintage Leather Satchels: The Leather Satchel Co.

11-inch British Vintage Style Satchel hand-crafted from Black and Red Leather

These satchels are hand-crafted in Britain from top quality, natural heavy leather by artisan leather-smiths. This standard design features a long adjustable shoulder strap (4-foot) that gives the satchel bag a lot of versatility. The satchel is very suitable for young kids, teenagers or fully-grown adults who are looking for something different. This particular 11-inch satchel (we have 5 standard sizes of satchel) is cut from Black and Red leather and is then stitched using a colour matched blend of cotton and nylon for extra durability. The straps and fasteners are then finished with silver buckles and finally the satchel is rivetted for completeness. All our satchels go through a number of quality control checks to ensure that the one you receive meets our high quality standard. All our satchels come with a 30-day no-quibble, money-back guarantee that is also accompanied by a 5-year craftsmanship guarantee. Check the reverse of the satchel for our embossed branding that ensures the quality and craftsmanship is second-to-none and that you're receiving an authentic British hand-crafted satchel.

Our 11-inch satchel is the perfect size to act as a ladies handbag. It's the smallest of our satchel designs and is compact and sleek. This makes it very practical and suitable for carrying everyday things such as your phone, purse, reading books, make-up, iPod, Playbook and generally all your essentials.

This particular two-toned satchel features a contrast of our Charcoal Black and Pillarbox leathers. This striking two-tone Black and Red combination harps back to the 1960 when Royal Mail postal workers used to carry their mail in leather bags trimmed with red binding. This vintage postman style bag is very contemporary and is also reminiscent of the Beatlemania period where clothes and bags where often finished and trimmed in a contrasting colour. On this particular satchel the colour of the main panels of the satchel are cut from our beautiful Charcoal Black leather whilst the trims and fasteners are cut from our sriking Pillarbox Red leather. Our Charcoal Black is a colour which gets it name due to the fact that it is a very similar colour to that of charcoal whilst our Pillarbox Red is a colour that is sampled from the pillar and post boxes found on the streets of Britian.

This classically designed and hand-crafted vintage style leather satchel has some amazing endorsements: This timeless satchel design is regulary featured in fashion publications like Vogue, Elle, Look, etc. It's always being snapped as part of the latest looks worn by all the boho celebs on the streets of London, Paris and New York. Fashionista just can't help blogging about them and statistically you've probably already read an article featuring them.

You're probably aware by now that The Leather Satchel Co. craft our own satchels in our own workshops that are based in the United Kingdom. Our leather-smiths have been making satchels and bags since the late 1960s and this particular design hasn't changed much since then. The Leather Satchel Co. is comprised of artisan leather workers and members of the Guild of Master Craftsmen. This particular satchel on display is our standard design but we offer an infinite number of variations for clients who care to shop directly with us.

Would you like your satchel monogramming or fitted with a briefcase briefcase handle? What about magnetic fasteners for quick access or a deeper gusset so you can pack more stuff in it? Would a longer shoulder strap look better with those long legs of yours? Perhaps you'd even prefer a satchel that was crafted to your own measurements? You can unlock these bespoke services for just a few pounds more when you deal directly with our workshop.
