Why it's worth it
Woven leather so tight it holds its own shape.
The Edit
Wide-strip intrecciato weaving covers the entire body of this slim rectangular tote, each leather band hand-laced to create a grid that holds its geometry without internal boning or stiffening. The double flat-strap handle sits at a 28cm drop — shoulder length, not crook-of-arm — and a dual magnet closure keeps the divided interior secured without hardware bulk on the exterior. Vegetable-dyed bovine leather and a cotton twill lining complete a construction that takes its cues from the Veneta school without copying it.
Insider Tip
Vegetable-dyed leather can transfer colour onto light fabrics for the first few wears — break it in against dark outfits.
