size & care
one size. the main compartment closes with a zip and the flap pocket on the front with a magnet. there's also a zip pocket, and a slip pocket inside. the strap adjusts from a 23 to a 60 cm drop, so it goes on the shoulder or across the body. the leather is tanned with plant tannins and lightly finished: it reacts to light and rain, and gets its own patina over the years. keep it empty and in a cotton dust bag when you don't use it, out of the sun. if it gets wet, dab it dry with a soft cloth, never near a heater, and skip the cleaning products.
