Why it's worth it
The belt buckle cinches a bag this size without stiffening it.
The Edit
Vintage-effect calf leather — grained, already broken-in at first glance — pulled into a generous open-top bucket with a single flat strap and no closures to negotiate. The defining move is a slender leather belt, silver-buckled, that cinches the front panel into a central pleat, giving a soft structural focal point without adding hardware weight. Cotton-lined interior holds a 13-inch laptop plus internal zip and open pockets, all made in Italy.
