Space and Style in One
This bag is not just an ordinary accessory, but a fully functional piece of kit. It offers one spacious main compartment, ideal for all the essentials you need to carry. The rectangular shape and soft leather allow it to hold even bulkier items. The flap reliably protects the contents and fastens with a leather loop and a beautiful, polished horn toggle, which is the dominant feature of the entire design.
Premium Material and Craftsmanship
The bag is made from genuine full-grain buffalo leather with a natural texture. This material is prized for its longevity and the beautiful patina it develops with use.

The decorative leather lacing around the edges of the flap and the top hem of the bag demonstrates meticulous craftsmanship.

Historical Context: Bags and Satchels
In the Middle Ages and the Renaissance, clothing typically did not have pockets. Men and women alike, therefore, relied on various types of pouches, and bags to carry their personal belongings. While smaller coin purses (or "gippesers") were worn at the waist on a belt, larger shoulder bags like this one were popular, especially with pilgrims, messengers, merchants, and anyone travelling a longer distance. They were often called a "pilgrim satchel" or "scrip" and were used to carry food, documents, a fire-starting kit, and other necessities for survival on the road.
Caring for Your Leather Product
To ensure this leather bag serves you for many years and continues to look great, give it a little care:
- Protect the bag from prolonged soaking. If it does get wet, let it air dry at room temperature (never on a heater or in direct sunlight!).
- To maintain the leather's suppleness, treat it from time to time (e.g., once every six months) with a leather conditioner or wax.
- Wipe away minor dirt with a slightly damp cloth.
- Do not use chemical solvents or soap, as they can dry out and damage the leather.
- When not in use, store the bag in a dry, ventilated place.
