Medieval belt bag with two small wallets

Spacious Medieval Leather Belt Pouch with Two Small Purses

Clever Layout Inspired by History

In the Middle Ages, pockets sewn into clothing were practically non-existent. Everyone, from a simple peasant to a wealthy nobleman, carried their necessities in bags and pouches suspended from a belt. This model, featuring a single wide suspension loop on the back, distributes the weight excellently and sits perfectly on the belt. The separate front purses, which are independently drawn closed with a leather cord and a square toggle, are absolutely ideal for sorting coins of different values or small artefacts. The spacious main compartment, also equipped with a drawstring, easily holds everything from a fire striker to a small snack. You then securely close the entire bag with a solid, smooth flap featuring a leather strap and a D-shaped buckle.

How to Properly Care for Your Leather Pouch

Leather is a natural material that requires your regular attention to maintain its softness and longevity. We recommend lightly treating the pouch from time to time with a high-quality beeswax leather balm or a special leather oil. This will protect it from drying out and increase its resistance to moisture. If you are caught in the rain at a historical event and the bag gets wet, always let it dry slowly at normal room temperature. Never dry it near an open fire or on a hot radiator, as the leather would irreparably stiffen and crack.

To accompany this practical belt pouch, we highly recommend you purchase a sturdy leather belt with a forged buckle and a set of replica historical coins from our range, with which you can immediately fill the front purses.
