size & care
one size. carry it in the hand or over the shoulder; the handle drop is 23 cm. one large compartment with a slip pocket inside for the small things, closed with a metal dog clip. the hides come from western europe and are tanned with plant extracts in tuscany. the full-grain surface develops a patina, and small marks or colour differences belong to the leather. keep it out of the sun and away from liquids; if it gets wet, dab it and let it dry away from the heater. no detergents. empty it when you're not using it and store it outside plastic, so it keeps its shape.
