Full details

This sleek, upright bag offers a sophisticated look with its soft-grain leather finish and artisanal braided detailing, providing a secure way to carry your phone and cards.

FAQs

Will this bag fit my smartphone?

The bag is designed for standard-sized smartphones. Large, 'Plus' size models may fit, but might be tight if you also store cards inside.

Can I replace the shoulder strap?

The strap is designed to be integrated into the bag's aesthetic and is adjustable, but it is not intended to be removed or replaced.

Is the leather water-resistant?

While genuine leather offers some natural protection, it is not waterproof. Avoid heavy rain and wipe off any moisture immediately if it gets wet.

How many cards can the internal slots hold?

The internal section features three designated card slots, with additional space available in the rear zip pocket.

How do I clean the braided detail?

Use a soft-bristled brush or a dry microfiber cloth to gently remove debris from between the braids.

Troubleshooting

Magnetic clasp won't stay closed

Ensure that items inside the bag are not pushing against the flap; reorganize contents to allow for a flatter profile.

Leather feels stiff or dry

Apply a small amount of leather conditioner or cream specifically designed for soft grain leather to restore moisture.

Zip feels slightly resistant

Ensure no fabric or card edges are caught in the track; a light application of beeswax can help smooth the movement of the zip.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Slim and lightweight design for true hands-free mobility
  • High-quality, durable soft-grain leather that improves with age
  • Versatile adjustable strap for various wearing styles
  • Thoughtful internal card storage reduces the need for extra accessories
  • Sophisticated design suitable for both casual and smart-casual outfits

Cons

  • Limited storage capacity for larger items like sunglasses or thick wallets
  • Slim profile may not accommodate larger 'plus' size smartphones in bulky cases
  • Requires regular leather maintenance to preserve the soft finish

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To achieve the best fit, adjust the shoulder strap by sliding the buckle to your desired length; ideally, the bag should sit at your hip for maximum comfort. For leather care, clean the surface periodically using a soft, dry cloth to remove dust. If the leather becomes damp, allow it to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources. To maintain the supple feel, apply a high-quality leather conditioner sparingly once or twice a year, ensuring it is compatible with soft-grain finishes. Avoid overfilling the card slots or zip compartments to maintain the bag's sleek silhouette and ensure the magnetic clasp closes properly.
